Der ursprünglich aus dem südafrikanischen Kapstadt stammende Linsey Levendall lebt und arbeitet mittlerweile im kleinen kanadischen Ort Melfort. Dort erstellt er wundervolle Portraits, die bunt und doch gediegen daherkommen. Dabei erinnern die mit Buntstiften erstellen Motive an Mosaiken aus Strichen.
„In his spare time, Linsey compulsively illustrates in various mediums for both business (on freelance projects) and pleasure. He says his intricately executed and seemingly disturbing work is driven by a need to be in sync with his subconscious thoughts and dreams. Linsey defines his work as being engaging decadence ,mildly trippy and takes great joy in entertaining the viewer with obscure controlled chaotic worlds and strangely interesting and complex characters. While his skill lies in his versatility and ability to adapt to various styles, he finds himself mostly drawn to Cubism, Surrealism and Pop Surrealism. In his work he aims to stay open to evolving and preserving unconventional thinking.“ (Artist Statement)
