I’m often asked how the Converse sneakers series came about. I found my 20 year old pair of old vintage Chuck Taylor All Star Americana Converse Stars n Stripes trainers (that I used to wear all the time when studying at Univerity) still in their box hiding at the back of my wardrobe. At a loss for something a new to paint I thought these would make a great series as waves of teenage nostalgia and memories came flooding back. The Andy Warhol Campbells soup Converse really do exist. I own a pair – they’re valuable, very rare and sometimes get worn to ‘Private Views’.
