2. Ben Allen




I find that Ben Allen's works are similar to Zak's in a way because of all the collage style and the way he splatters the paint around. In my opinion i think that Ben long ago liked the work's of Zak and wanted to create some of his own, but i think there is a difference because i think that photoshop was involved with Ben's work to create the butterfly wings and the over the picture technique as i like to call it.
What drawn me to Ben's works is that all the colour and the skulls obviously, but I like to create a big collage with painting it is a free way to express you'r self and forget about all the tidy widy style as i like to call it. I am interested in his skull work i have here because not of the nude women mind you, but the butterfly wings and a nice effect it gives the work. Working in a multitude of media like Comic books, Japanese Graphics, nature and human condition like the two nude women for example i think it represents death. He dose have lots of clients but I think that he likes to create his work for fun.
