Artist Spotlight: Philip Gerald

Love these flower paintings by Dublin-based artist Philip Gerald. Unconcerned with how his work is received, Gerald chooses instead to focus on enjoying the process which he describes as “pointlessly recreating crude, digital drawings with analogue techniques.” His compositions harken back to the time of Microsoft paint with the aim of capturing his own anxieties in the least serious way possible.
