Take a trip round the boyish brain of the excellent Michael Leon Sadler
For someone who draws pictures that you wouldn’t be surprised to find underneath a nine-year-old boy’s bed, Michael Sadler is doing incredibly well. Maybe it’s because what he does looks so simple but is, in fact, almost impossible. To be able to draw with such little inhibition and make images that are like snapshots of a boy’s dream after a school trip to a castle is kind of an amazing skill. So expect turrets, lakes, battle axes and helmets, all illustrated in glorious watercolour and commissioned by the greats. We’re talking The Believer, Kramer’s Ergot, Mould Map and even Nike! Jealous of Michael’s life? I know I am.
