Stov lives and works as an artist in Hampshire, not far from Winchester. He paints in a graphic style, working in flat blocks colours to create powerful and ambiguous compositions.

This collection is in fact inspired by the reflections of traditional Maltese fishing boats in the harbour of Marsaxlokk. Typically blue, yellow and red, these vessels offer a joyful palette of primary colours. Using the reflections of the boats in the water as his starting point, Stov’s bold style delivers the subject in a contemporary, stylised way.
