“It's this process that has takenme so long tomaster and the thrill is turning a mass of colours and shapes into a picture locked in the imagination.”

Whatabanker and Menacing MoriartyMarauder to the softer and more childlike images of The Cantering Caketacular Queen of Bakes and the neon colours of Tuppenny Pennysaurus, Smith has created an absorbing world in which the collector can delve as deeply into the fictitious and real historical narrative of the paintings as they wish. Add to these, two new free standing hand painted resin sculptures from the debut Lost Impossimal series; this is undoubtedly Smith’s boldest and most innovative collection to date.

“I have definitely moved from a world that looked bright and colourful and comfortable to something a little bit edgy," says Smith, who sees Bloodlines as only the start of a continuing saga in which his imagination is set to run wild for years to come. “For me, art is escapismwith nostalgia thrown in, so there is plenty more to go," laughs the intriguing Mr Smith. Gallery Bloodlines can be seen in Castle Galleries across the UK with certain galleries hosting a personal appearance from Smith himself, visit website for more details castlegalleries.com
