New Derrick Fielding
I remember spending much of my childhood with my head buried in a comic usually The Beano. I would often relish being sent to bed early as a punishment for some misdemeanour so I could read the latest escapade of The Bash Street Kids.
From an early age I loved to draw and as I grew older, I began to use this passion to unleash my elaborate imagination to create games for me and my neighbourhood friends.
Fortunately, my father was a painter and decorator so my earliest canvases were the backs of rolls of wallpaper that were supposedly for his customers.

With a self-taught artistic and creative background, he has developed a distinctive and totally unique artistic style he titles 'Double Hexposure'.
Each piece starts with a composition sketch and is then transferred to a digital tablet to be painted digitally, stroke by stroke.
The 3D-Hex Artworks are all made & fabricated by hand, by the artist at his studio. The additional Hexagon pieces that provide the floating three-dimensional aesthetic are delicately trimmed and are layered across specific sections of the artworks and are floated at three varying heights.


NEW Tim Shorten
