Oliver Walton is a West Yorkshire-based artist whose work explores the quiet resonance of often-overlooked scenes in daily life. Drawn to the ordinary, his paintings focus on unnoticed places and unremarkable moments, inviting viewers to reconsider the significance of their surroundings and how we relate to the spaces we move through.
