Oil on canvas, 75 x 65cm Edge is predominately a figurative painter interested in folklore and story telling, whose paintings depict the extraordinary lives of ordinary people. He believes his interests originate from his childhood, where he grew up around colourful and eccentric family members who would tell him remarkable stories.

"Ben Edge and the Museum of British Folklore - Frontline Folklore, June 2021" Edge has been working on a new series of paintings that have been inspired by a serendipitous experience in which he stumbled across a Druid ceremony taking place on Tower Hill, London. Inspired by this incredible discovery, Edge began researching the folklore and seasonal customs of the British Isles and was amazed to discover that there were such events taking place all over the UK.
