Skull Duggery
By Brian Akpah
Brian was born in London in 1973, and grew up with foster parents. He submits his artworks via London homeless charity the 240 Project. “Drawing elates me,” he says, “I’m selfish, do what I want to do, draw from my head, from my imagination, using strong colours – red, yellow, blue. Once I start that’s it, no break, got to work, work, work. I enjoy the mess, the clouds of chalk dust, the pastels crumbling on the paper, it makes me happy.”
