"Ice Cream" Hand-painted paper collage

“Being able to stop your thoughts even for just a minute is a real miracle, it really becomes a lifestyle. In the beginning when I was stopping and starting I found my life would just go down the rabbit hole again. Now I feel much happier in myself, making my art a lot more joyous and peaceful.”

For Ben Morgan art has always been a big part of family life. His own grandfather was a celebrated watercolour artist who serves as a great source of inspiration for Ben’s work. Graduating in Illustration in 2013, he has since been doing a mix of illustration and traditional fine art work. His own style evolved from a mistake which lead to hand painted paper collage, with the aim of making something beautiful, picturesque and with a good combination of colours.

Ben started Sahaja Yoga meditation following a suggestion from his father who had been practising for some years. At a rough time in life, seeing how collected his father was he decided to try it out, and continues to meditate to this day. “Being able to stop your thoughts even for just a minute is a real miracle, it really becomes a lifestyle. In the beginning when I was stopping and starting I found my life would just go down the rabbit hole again. Now I feel much happier in myself, making my art a lot more joyous and peaceful.”
