Street Art: Steve Mcintosh combines architecture with otherworldliness

The Big Issue’s Street Art page gives talented, marginalised individuals an outlet for creative expression

‘ON A DUTCH’

By Steve Mcintosh

Steve taught himself to draw at a young age from reading DC comic books. He submits his artworks via London homeless charity the 240 Project.

His work possesses an ethereal quality and often combines architecture designs with eerie natural elements and a sense of otherworldliness.

“My drawing feels more technical than artistic,” he says, “puzzles, crosswords and historical facts influence my thoughts and occupy my time, though my work comes from my imagination. I don’t feel in any rush when working, just take my time, each line is considered, not instinctive.”

Support out street artists over at The Big Issue Shop.
