This is one of the most beautiful and sensitive pieces that I saw at Upfest this year. The artist, Sokar Uno has created something really touching and outstanding. This is without doubt one of my favourite pieces from this year’s festival.
Sokar Uno is a young German artist who has been painting and illustrating since he was twelve. Clearly he is very talented.
There is a wonderful explanation of the approach he takes to his art on his excellent website which is really worth a visit.
I am thoroughly taken with his ‘classical’ style and would really love to see more of his work. I fear I might have to travel to Berlin to see it though. It is a real privilege to see him at work in Bristol.

Such a beautiful image.

Last time I was in Bristol I saw a load of his work, although I’m guessing it was all painted over at the last Upfest

It passed me by, which is unfortunate. I’ll be looking out more now though.

In fact I saw a very big piece by him today, at the Ferdinand Estate in Camden (which you should really check out if you get the chance)

I think I might have seen it on Instagram. Camden may have to wait until next spring/summer.

I also enjoyed catching him at work during the Upfest too! Took sooooo many pics but have only posted a small selection so far of which Sokar Uno was top of my list! Check it out here.
