ARTIST STATEMENT: Inspired in part by the street art of Teddy Baden, I produced a piece using stencils and spray paints. The portrait is a stylised and fun abstraction of my dog.

His lino print "Generation" was also shortlisted in 2020. Joe was also an Art for Guernsey Scholarship winner when only age 14.
