After leaving the music industry 20 years ago, Roger Aslin has worked as a practicing artist with features in publications in the UK and USA, and successful solo shows across London. 

'Aslin's current painting explores two key areas – the figure and the urban environment – and is influenced by his continued interest in film and television. His key focus, through the medium of painting, is how people interact with the contemporary environment. He show's urban life in dramatic colour and shade by using a highly contrasting palette to additionally emphasise shape and form. He takes images on camera or phone, later to be refined and honed digitally in the studio before commencing painting on paper, board or canvas. The intense colour using water based media (usually acrylic) of the finished piece is achieved by painting multiple layers. The image is also changing/refining during this process, with elements added or subtracted to obtain the final image.'
