Joseph J Walker ArtQ&A
What funny moments, unexpected surprises, or obstacles have you encountered?
"I was recently approached by leading global film and entertainment communications agency DDA and asked to collaborate with them on the promotion of the Mrs Lowry & Son film by creating my version of an L.S. Lowry painting.
I reimagined Lowry’s ‘The Rush Hour’, creating a modern day social snapshot, with the scene set at night, the mills transformed into a nightclub and apartments and the gloomy workers replaced with jubilant revellers.
I’ve never laughed out loud so much when painting a piece! It’s was fantastic to bring so much joy and energy into the painting. I’m not sure what Lowry would make of the modern day street scene, but hopefully it would make him smile!”"
