I have been looking at some new artists, primarily based around the punk scene. William Weege was born in the 1930s and lives in San Francisco. He works in print and is also a lecturer but still sells his own work.
I find his work useful to my project as it tackles some controversial topics, as befits most punk ideals.
His flat colours and use of black give a stark, gritty overtone to his work, which I find appealing.

Weege's work is definitely something I will investigate further. I like the poster idea as a way of taking my work forward, although I will make this relevant to a Masters project, I'm not sure yet.
