Roy Tyson is an artist making a big impression with his painted figurines
He recently told the Essex Echo that street art is his biggest influence. He said: ‘I like Banksy and the way he uses street art.
‘For me, the street art I do is just looking at things that are every day and seeing how little people can be used to make these things look funny.
‘It makes objects look different, it’s a mixture between things that are going on in the world and things that just pop into my head.’
