The paintings in I am Alex are inspired by everyday things and emotions and are painted and drawn in 20x26x2cm primed linen canvas with a 2cm depth.
Alex has teased on his website that there might be special large paintings in the collection as well.
Each 20x26x2cm painting is sold at $55 with free delivery and half of the exhibition sales will be donated to the Cat Welfare Society.
The society was chosen by Alex due to his love for cats. He is also an owner of two cats which have been with him since he was six years old.
His artwork has been shared and viewed positively from the general public on his facebook page and some of his pieces have already been sold. PHOTO CREDIT: FACEBOOK/THEUNSKILLEDBOY
On his website, Alex said that he has loved to draw and paint since he was little and painting gives him a lot of joy. He also hopes that his paintings will bring joy to buyers.
