Angela Lizon is based in Bristol, South West
I am a painter, mainly working in oils. I'm very interested in kitsch and the cultural divide between the general public and the fine art world/elite. My images are usually sourced from the internet or from objects from charity shops or joke shops. I use photoshop to amalgamate objects and then adjust the images and paint from the photos.
