Fifteen years ago Stuart Free embarked upon a mission to paint and record London. Armed with photographs of the city, Stuart began to make large scale dramatic paintings of the urban landscape.

He soon became particularly stimulated by buildings that were neglected and run-down. Possessing melancholic intrigue, these dishevelled locations revealed colourful pasts to Stuart and the discovery of these allegories and narratives evoked a deep sense of respect and belonging. The rest is painting history, literally.

Having now painted over three hundred large scale artworks and photographed thousands of sites in London, Stuart feels he has amassed a body of very significant work.
