Art 'work' Electric?

Ian Welch is, amongst other things, a digital artist. He lives, breathes and generally exists in the small coastal town of Emsworth right on the border of both Hampshire and West Sussex. For some unfathomable reason he started doing this style of artwork five years ago when he found himself trying to develop a style for a possible comic book project. The comic book project sadly never amounted to anything yet Ian perservered with the style. Over a period of time the style progressed and eventually turned into what it is today......i.e a series of portraits based on celebrities?? Ian has absolutely no idea why or how his style has progressed into this but assumes it was initially based on the idea of getting music and film magazines to use them in some way. Sadly the internet killed most of the magazines Ian initially thought about sending his work to so now he continues to do these illustrations for pretty much no reason whatsoever. Ian has never really made any money from doing this artwork but it has led to him to some very interesting places/people in the past all of which/whom he wouldn't have visited/met with out his artwork. Ian will be continuing to produce this style of artwork in the vain hope that someone somewhere will notice him and perhaps one day he will become the millionaire he has always hoped to be.....although he generally thinks he might have died of old age by the time this actually happens!!
