Nathan Eastwood was born in Barrow-in-Furness, England in 1972.[1] He graduated from Byam Shaw School of Art in 2009.[2]
Eastwood was a finalist in the 2007 'Celeste Art Prize'[3] and won the inaugural 'East London Painting Prize' in 2014.[4] He paints everyday domestic and urban scenes of people he records on his mobile phone. Eastwood works in monochrome by applying enamel paint to board in thin layers.[5][6] Of his work Eastwood says: "Central to my painting practice is a re-examination of kitchen sink realism."[7]
