{"title":"Dylan Izaak","description":"\u003cp\u003eDlyan Izaak's unique approach to cityscape paintings has made a huge impact on art lovers across Britain. His idiosyncratic view of undulating skylines, famous buildings and busy metropolitan scenes encourages us to look at the world around us with new eyes, and offers a distinctive contemporary take on urban life. Dylan spent his early years travelling between England and Australia. His creative path reflected this unusual childhood, as he began his artistic career by seeking out interesting buildings around the world. His status was reflected when he was invited to join an elite group of Official BT Olympic Artists for 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking on aluminium, Dlyan creates an accurate sketch then draws over the top at speed to almost liberate the image - as he says, to allow for 'happy accidents' - then reworks the drawing many times until he likes what he says. This means that although each piece is created with meticulous care and attention, they retain a strong sense of immediacy and spontaneity. He then begins the painstaking process of painting gloss paints into each individual shape that he has made. Once the whole piece is coloured he draws all the lines back on top with black paint. This is how I approach my own artwork, exaggerating certain features of buildings and giving them a twist here and there to accentuate the character that I see in it\".\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/www.generationgallery.com\/collections\/artists-dylan-izaak.oembed","provider":"Generation Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
