The Drawing Year Alumni, 2016. Oscar Farmer is 23 years old and comes from South East London. He graduated from Brighton University with First Class Honours in Fine Art Painting in 2015, before joining the Royal Drawing School where he has been able to develop skills to create drawings that stand on their own rather than as by-products of his painting. Oscar has always utilised humour in his work, which explores themes of the human condition. His art tries to remind us of the normality of anxiety and presence of melancholy in this world, whilst at the same time creating a source of visual entertainment.
