Mikk Murray is an artist, living and working in Sheffield.  He describes his work as being like the symbiotic relationships within a woodland, a collection of drawings, walks, observations and explorations that work together as a whole.

His paintings emerge from this process with a sense of connectedness and history to them.

Mikk will introduce us to his process for developing drawings from sketchbooks leading up to making big paintings showing how he works with acrylics to create big canvasses.
