David Whitlam is a surrealist artist from Manchester, UK who creates both traditional oil paintings and digital paintings based off of initial pencil sketches created through a process called “automatic drawings”. Essentially, Whitlam spontaneously draws while “largely unconscious in a trance-like state.” If you ask me, that’s pretty awesome. No questions asked.
In much of Whitlam’s work, religious and mythological symbolism is scattered through out his scenes combined with an eclectic mixture of everyday objects and abstract forms.
