His childhood home was a place where extraordinary things happened. Drawing was the original expression. Hamish Blakely would draw often, trying to emulate other artists and understand their creative processes. Having stubbornly lived in the world of black and white, Hamish Blakely made himself break from these comforting confines and made himself paint at age 18. This was the first time he had made a painting so seriously; it was a portrait of his Dad. This was the turning point for Hamish Blakely, and painting subsequently replaced drawing completely. He studied at Wimbledon School of Art and Kingston University, and only drew again at college to completely give it up when he left. He now paints immediately, considering preparatory sketches unnecessary. Hamish Blakely became an illustrator shortly after leaving college and received a national award. He now paints full time. |
