Boyan - We've had some great work on this week and the choice for artist of the week was tough - the result may surprise.

What grabs me most about this work is that it manages to get your attention, to stand out, without being sensationalist or explosive in content. It does it calmly, warmly and comfortably by creating a gentle, almost dream-like setting. It is that contrast between it and the other work which I enjoy and that is the reason Mary is our artist of the week this week.
