ARTIST STORY
Carl Stimpson is a British painter and printmaker. Born and raised in Kidderminster, West Midlands, Stimpson now lives and works in North London. For over a decade, Stimpson’s practice has drawn on a variety of sources in the development of both its form and content – namely the ‘ligne claire’ style, late‐twentieth‐century popular music and the trademarks of well‐known industrial brands.

We love how Carl takes nostalgic imagery and gives it a contemporary twist. Taking inspiration from the iconic imagery of the 20th century, Carl leaves his own Pop Art-inspired mark on these well loved characters. From Tintin to Daffy Duck and Archie Comics, Carl gives new life to these vintage comic book characters. We admire how Carl uses bold accents of colour in his artworks to draw in the eye. This is a coherent motif that is present in Carl's large catalogue of artworks. Stimpson continues to feature in solo and group exhibitions across the UK. However you can also view his work around the streets of London and sometimes further afield.
