The Artist
Tony’s most frequent refrain in the art studio is “just think about it!” - a phrase which acts as a statement of intent for his artwork as well as a philosophy for life. Tony's highest ambition as an artist is for people to see his artwork and in doing so, be provoked into this state of consideration. When he writes “SUBMIT TO LOVE” in huge, densely patterned letters, he really means it, and wants you to take those words to heart. Tony’s art is characterised by dense pattern and colour that he will return to again and again, working into details that would go unnoticed by the casual observer.
