Nigel Cox
I came across Nigel Cox’s work at the Royal Society of Portrait Painters Annual Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London. I was blown away by his remarkable, detailed figures and his minimal compositions. His paintings are subtly powerful and filled with optimism and confidence. Cox is based in London, UK and works in his studio near Camberwell.

Bumblebee’s street art has long been lovingly intervening on Los Angeles’ skyline through phone boxes and newsstands. Most recently, Bumblebee has taken an affectionate turn, and draws LA’s attention to a tragic rise in child homelessness rates since the recent global financial crisis with a series of subtle and moving murals where child homelessness is most prevalent. To think such good art could do so much good. Read more
