Mark Addison is an artist whose work is inspired by the conversations he overhears every day. I can only wonder what he would draw if he heard the bizarre stuff I talk about on an almost daily basis.
Mark Addison's illustrations are funny and thought-provoking. Hearing a snippet of a conversation is a terrible tease--it makes me wonder where the rest of the conversation will go and where it started. I'm going to spend the rest of the day checking out Mark Addison's pictures in the gallery and trying to reconstruct what was being said. I can't stand not knowing.
