David Bowie
Coincidentally, my homage to Bowie was completed the day after he was named ‘Britain’s most influential artist of the past half-century.’
I was lucky enough to see him live (around the time of his Let’s Dance Album) and witness his amazing musical and visual style.
JB’s favourite songs:
Man who sold the World, Jean Genie, From Ashes to Ashes, Starman and of course Let’s Dance.
Jeremy Baker studied at Bath Academy of Art (part of Bath University) under the tutorship of amongst others, Sir Michael Craig Martin.
