Vincent\u2019s arresting portraits are built on the assumption that society will always identify with rebels and the gritty underground world of urban subculture. For his latest work he has traveled around the UK visiting barber shops and events to gather material in a setting which transcends social class and makes everyone feel like \u2018one of the boys\u2019. These mesmerizing oil paintings evoke emotion, fascination and intrigue about both the backstory and the future of a character. He seeks out moments of tension, and explains: \u201cMy paintings are all quite dark, subtle and intense. I\u2019m always imagining there\u2019s something surreptitious going on in a perfectly innocent situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

He is heavily influenced by cinematography and its impact on storytelling, believing that by manipulating the composition, light and colour you can completely change the feel of scene.
