About the Item

Walking Man is an oil on canvas painting of a figure - formed in a geometric abstracted manner by Artist & Musician John Illsley. The artwork comes signed and framed. As the founding member and bass guitarist of the rock group Dire Straits, John Illsley first started painting when he was just 15 years old. Also showing promise as a guitarist, when the time came to choose where he wanted his talents to take him, Illsley opted for music. When Dire Straits disbanded in the mid-90s, John found he could spend more of his days in his art studio exploring this other passion. Influenced by the French countryside and his love of music, today, Illsley’s works have been exhibited in several highly successful international solo exhibitions.
