Chris Wells

Last Wednesday we went to Edinburgh to the Royal Scottish Academy and the Scottish national gallery.
I really like this piece of work called "referendum in wonderland".
this piece of work is an ink drawing.
The piece must of been very recent because it involves subjects like the Scottish referendum. It also involves the ice bucket challenge which was a social and charity event.
 I really really like how detailed it is and how much he has crammed into it.

I also like the fact that it is right here right now. like the narrative of the picture is what is happening in the world around us. I also like how comical it is because of things like the door with  Picasso lived here. The only thing I don't like about it was that I couldn't get a good photo of it.

I then had a look online and found more stuff by him. It turns out he also has a blogger account.

   
I found this one which was not in the gallery. I really like his style of work. The amount if info that is crammed into the pieces are great.

I feel that the trip to the gallery as a whole was great, I found out about new artists like Chris wells that I had never heard of or seen any of his work.
another reason really enjoyed it was it was amazing seeing a van Gogh, Rembrandt and Gauguin in the flesh.
