Dready, Dready Art and Everything Dready daniel27schickens
the big thing idea behind dready art was that it be ‘simple’ in its representation of stuff it wasn’t to be exact but to be recognizable … Daniel’s Chickens are a good example … there I was busily drawing chickens that looked like chickens when Daniel Ebanks stopped by ‘you’re trying too hard, make them more simple’ he said, it was a sort of moment of revelation about how to express something in its simplest form; we sat down, we drank some coffee and we hashed out the chickens. 

the end result was 5 lines and a coloured comb with a pointillist body … daniel’s chickens!
daniel was the very first person to buy a piece of dready art; I think he has a collection of 6 or 7 pieces and his are a reflection of the progression of dready.
Thanks
