​

Drawing from an early age, art became both a refuge and a means of expression during difficult teenage years. At just 15, Owen undertook a Certificate IV in Visual Arts, further developing his skills and confidence.

 

His practice has since evolved into a distinctive style that blends pop art and surrealism, often infusing subjects with human-like qualities. Through bold, contrasting colour, Owen creates works that command attention and communicate a strong sense of personal expression.

 

His creative interests continue to expand beyond visual art into music, particularly bass, reflecting a growing engagement across multiple artistic forms.
