Artist Name: Max Frances

I am an artist made of wire and string and the bones of someone else I used to be. For me creativity is as necessary as respiration. I fight my demons with pencils and paint them into corners. Inspiration comes from nature and the magic and mystery to be found behind the banal mask of the everyday.

Although all life is equally precious, I am especially drawn to the ungainly magnificence of vultures. As a scavenger myself, I enjoy using recycled, found and unexpected materials. I find beauty in that which is ignored and disdained.

All proceeds from sales will go towards Art Shape and The International Centre for Birds of Prey.
