“Portrait of a Northern Youth”

You’ll chance on him in your town centre. e’s recklessly pulling a wheelie on his mountain bike. He’s tarnished with a misplaced undercurrent of threat but stumbling into adulthood under a bombardment of trashy subliminal influence.

The bull terrier slumbers on its brick red blanket. An amber marbled eye periodically darts across towards its owner; seeking silent reassurance that their bond remains strong and there’s nothing happening of consequence.

returns to 8pm tonight.

Grayson’s work and social commentary is superb. I’ve travelled extensively to his exhibitions. In 2010 I completed his portrait, “When Grayson Speaks.”

I hope to exhibit it in 2021 before putting it up for sale.

Scroobius Pip, Distraction Pieces.

Oil on canvas.

I first heard on his podcast and was instantly taken by his easy going nature. He brought the best out of his guests.

His gritty social commentary in music makes him a kindred spirit.

Thanks Pip.
