Long old break, but new work now on Instagram instagram.com/funny_little_m…

Such a pleasure to have had the chance to paint Rudolph Walker CBE. What a character. #thebigpaintingchallenge repeated all this week, BBC2, 3.15-4.15pm

Sink drawings. Prep for a drawn animation - slowly rubbing out, taking away. Speaking of sinking, the last 2 eps of #thebigpaintingchallenge coming up now on BBC2 ;) sink or swim?

Matan Ben Cnaan wins BP portrait Award 2015

Trying to juggle a busy schedule at the moment, which is ridiculous because I haven't got time to waste juggling.

Just me or is there something of Watteau's Gilles in Pascal Anson tonight? Quite cute. Really enjoying episode 2 #thebigpaintingchallenge

Little still life with peaches, plums, milk jug. Oil on canvas (sorry about the bad quality image)

Wonderful and refreshing to see animals painted from direct observation & not copied straight from internet images #bigpaintingchallenge

Excited to be a part of this craziness today painting in the Radio 1 Live Lounge (even if I will undoubtedly be the least cool person/ painter there...) :') x.com/gregjames/stat…
