The Lazy Artist Background The Lazy Artist was brought up in a remote town in the North of Scotland. It was here in his childhood, he began to paint and draw simple pictures while at studying at the local primary school. Renowned for producing great artists such as Picasso and M. C. Escher, it was not long before this little school produced another amazing talent.

The Lazy Artist did not really enjoy painting and drawing, preferring to spend his time out in the playground like a normal kid. All the other busy artists used to frown upon this and it was not long before The Lazy Artist found himself something of an outsider among the art crowd. This did not, however, hold him back in anyway, and the frequent wet Scottish weather regularly forced The Lazy Artist and everyone else to play inside the class room. It was here that The Lazy Artist used to stun both the busy artists and the normal kinds with his simple but inspiring masterpieces.

During The Lazy Artist's time at secondary school, he spent very little of his time working on masterpieces. This was mainly because of the abolishment of the wet play time rule, meaning that children were forced outside whether it was raining or not. Also, the introduction of new subjects and a longer timetable left little time for drawing. During The Lazy Artist's third year a remarkable opportunity arose. The Lazy Artist was given the chance to study Standard Grade Art and Design. The Lazy Artist quickly enrolled on the course eager to get an "easy" 1 -(A). The course was not, however, the walk in the park The Lazy Artist had envisioned. The critics- or Art teachers- did not find his unique style of art fitted in with the curriculum's marking scheme and regularly failed assignments. The Lazy Artist did manage "to get his act together" and qualified with a 2-(B).

The Lazy Artist did not enroll on any more Art courses considering them to be a waste of time. He left the sleepy town for the bright lights of Edinburgh to study at university. The long holidays and small timetable suited The Lazy Artist perfectly. He began to pick up his paint brush and pencils once again. Financial difficulties combined with "the Credit Crunch" then restricted the art supplies he could afford to buy. This lead to The Lazy Artist's venture into digital art. Pictures could be produced quickly, neatly and more important- cheaply. These brand new methods allow The Lazy Artist to convey his ideas and themes much more effectively

Works

The Lazy Artist is currently working on his "Blueman" series. This series features "the Blue man" in a variety of settings all loosely related to other pieces of art or current events. These pieces of artwork have yet to be reviewed but many consider them to be future Masterpieces.

The Lazy Artist has yet to officialy publish any of his work, although pieces do occasionally find their way on to eBay and other less famous online marketplaces
