In an interview with Bored Panda, Nathan shared more about himself and his background.

“I’m an artist from Wales in the UK, who specialises mostly in creating iconic pop culture artworks using unconventional materials. These often include food items and everyday things you may use without thinking they could be utilised for art. It’s been my full-time profession for over a decade and it’s an absolute dream come true to travel the world and create art every day of my life.”

We were wondering what initially drew Nathan to the world of artistry. He responded: “I always loved drawing portraits of people from a young age. I began making works of celebrities I admire and then it naturally became my profession by uploading videos to YouTube and various other social media platforms as they grew over the years.

The playfulness of using anything and everything to make art keeps me and my audience excited as to what’s coming next. I now get to work with some of the biggest brands and stars in the world! Including presenting work to Mariah Carey, Tom Holland, and Logan Paul!”

Nathan uses unconventional materials like coffee, chocolate, and lipstick in his art; therefore, we wanted to know what inspired him to work with these everyday items, and how they help tell each piece's story.

“Every piece relates to the person I’m creating in some way. It can be a breaking news story, a stereotype or character trait of that person or simply a song lyric or movie quote. Inspiration for new works comes from everywhere. When you don’t limit yourself as to what can be used for art, then the world really is your playground. I love it! It can be silly and fun, and sometimes even hold a more powerful, meaningful message,” explained Nathan.

Nathan also told us more about his creative process.

“The basics are always drawing, sketching outlines and planning the materials. Understanding how long things take to dry, how much of it you need to make each piece really unique. I have quite a short attention span so I like to work very quick. I think the energy I put into each artwork can be seen in the brush strokes and splashes - whether it’s with paint or ketchup!”

When asked if there are any new materials or themes Nathan is excited to try, he wrote: “Always. I never limit myself. I love working on a large scale so I think that’s where I’ll focus my attention next. Maybe break a world record for the largest ever portrait created? Who knows!”

Lastly, Nathan added: “More than anything, I like to get across the message that art is good for all us. No matter your skill level, age, background, and especially what material you’re using. Just create! Let the energy flow and magic happens.”
