John Virtue turner like painter of thames/london in black and white

ai borrowed a few art video from library yesterday - i'd never heard of him but love his work.   He works in black ink and white acrylic on huge canvases and he was artist in resident at nat gallery in 2004 when he painting the thames and london with it's smog - very turner like without colour - turner is his fav artist and one of mine.  just found an exert of the video on youtube - it's a real lesson in freedom in painting in the hands of a master.

some info on him on the nat gallery site:   http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/learning/associate-artist-scheme/john-virtue/

though his is grottier, i see similar kind of misty freedom/not too realistic, that i see in claire basler but perhaps even more so in his
