Very pleased that “My Strangers” has been published in Literati Magazine. Thankyou Renee S.

The result?
Complex and ambitious pieces resting beside messy tags and testosterone fueled scrawled shit-slinging.
Some of Asone’s recent work at the New Street boards
I’ve become a bit more familiar with the work of a few of those artists while taking a walk during my lunch hour. A particular piece painted late last year really blew me away. It was super-complex and merged slick figurative elements and tight letters on a background that looked just as time consuming to put together as the focus of the piece itself.
