The Artist
Ethan Ford
was born 1973 in Manchester where he still lives. He left school
with Grade A GCSE passes in Art, Design Communication
& Design Realisation.
However,
Ethan did not pursue his art education, but went on to develop
his artwork over the next twenty years, particularly developing
an interest in black and white art into a pen and ink technique
called "stippling".
He has now
moved his focus onto another pen and ink technique - crosshatch.
Ethans
main subject matter is motorsport. Other than his art, he is
fanatical about anything relating to motorsport. He feels the
crosshatching style suits the motorsport theme in that it creates
a more dynamic sense of motion in the drawing. But he can turn
his hand to most subjects, from landscapes to portraits as well
as wildlife and motorsport.
At present
Ethan is striving to develop his artistic skills further. He
is planning to arrange several exhibitions in the very near
future. He is also open to commission requests.
