“When I was a kid in the West Country, I didn’t have anyone to look after me most of the time, so I’d cycle round to my grandad Leslie’s tiny little cottage. He would buy me sweets and then tell me daredevil war stories about parachuting into Germany in the middle of the night when he was a soldier.”
HOPE AND GLORY I “This piece is in tribute to my grandad, who was in World War Two. I didn’t have any parents, so he was like my father figure growing up. He liked to tell me war stories about fighting German soldiers, and we’d always fly his old flags for football and the Queen’s birthday. Every time I create a flag artwork, I think of my grandad.”
