Frank Laws’s super-scale paintings of looming London buildings are sinister, captivating and magical all at the same time. It’s hard to place them – are these late Victorian tenements or 21st-century urbanscapes? – bristling as they do with an air of mystery, the home of stories untold. His technique is painstaking and laborious but the results are fantastical – be sure to check his excellent Tumblr blog which charts the creation of the centrepiece painting.
