Urban Landscape Artists Research: Nathan Walsh

Nathan Walsh is an interesting artist, not only because his paintings are extremely life like but because his artistic technique involves extremely complex drawings resembling that of an architechural blueprint.
Many artists use a camera or computer software for the base of their paintings and work with that to complete their finished piece, however Nathan Walsh interestingly rejects this technique and instead relies on his drawings of certain chosen scenes. Walsh prefers to use his Human eye therefore giving him the chance to make pictorial decisions. With mathematical structure he is able to give his art a sense of 'real life'. His Paintings are geometrically perfect looking but actually give a sense of perhaps 'bent space'. This could question the Human eye's perception of the world and that which surrounds us.

"Working with a box of pencils and an eraser I will start establishing an horizontal line on which I will place vanishing points to construct simple linear shapes which become subdivided into more complex arrangements." Nathan Walsh. 

 Walsh's paintings take up to three or four months to complete. Here are some examples of his work.
