PimpArtworks Introduce DBO

**Coming V Soon**

PimpArtworks are launching a new Signed, Numbered Limited Edition section.

In between now and then we'll be interviewing various talents who will be showcased & selling work in the new section.PimpArtworks are proud to announce DBO among them!

How old are you and where are you based?

“I’m currently based in lovely Leamington Spa and I hope I’m 28, sorry no it might be 27 it’s easy to get confused.”

How did you get into Graffiti and what made you start?

“I wouldn’t class myself as a graffiti artist, I’m just a run of the mill artist who gets asked to paint on walls from time to time so I do it. Being a graffiti artist is a totally different bag, I’ve got a lot of respect for those guys being able to do what they do, so quickly there a dedicated bunch who put the rest of us to shame!”

Where did you paint your first piece?

“Probably at my parents house about 3.5 years ago, for me it’s all about the drawing though, the simplicity of a pencil line on a page, anything beyond that is just for the viewers enjoyment really.”

How would you describe your style?

“I guess you would say abstract, but it’s not trying to be anything, I like to create groups of complex shapes, which hopefully people will be able to look at and see something new, it’s the excitement of creating something new which drives me most.”

If you weren’t an artist what else do you think you’d have been?

“Not sure, I think life is all about obsessions, it’s just a series of obsessions punctuated by love, death and for me art. If I didn’t have art it would no doubt be something else, but I feel I owe a debt to my art so I’m trying to stick at it for as long as possible.”

Name three things you love and three you hate.

“I Love, Pizza, swimming and there is this other person I’m quite fond of but don’t tell her.

Smoking, Pizza being hemmed in by ball shit jobs that don’t mean anything or have any worth.”

You’re a featured artist at the Upfest festival again this year. What can people expect this time?

“To be disappointed as me and the rest of the team that were supposed to be painting have had to pull out for various reasons, sorry to Steve and Kim the organisers who do an amazing job organizing a group of unruly artists.”

Which artists inspire you and who would you most like to work with given the opportunity?

“Will Barras without a doubt, his work has an amazing quality to it, it seems to flow effortlessly, I find each piece of his has a real depth to it, it hints and something greater, heaven would look like a Barras painting. I don’t think I would want to work with him though.”

Cheers for your time DBO, is there anything you’d like to add?

“No problem, I don’t think I want to add anything, would you like me to add something?”
