PAUL CANNELL - RIP PAUL CANNELL, the artist famous for his work with
PRIMAL SCREAM and MANIC STREET PREACHERS, has committed suicide.
The
east London artist was living and working in Cornwall until recently
and also
released a single with his band Crawl through Creation in 1996.
Cannell created the distinctive images for the covers of ’Screamadelica’, ’Higher
Than The Sun’ and
’
Don’t Fight It Feel It’ by Primal Scream as well as the ’You
Love Us’ and ’Stay Beautiful’ singles by
Manic Street Preachers. He also designed the sleeve for Flowered Up’s ’Phobia’ and
the Heavenly record label’s bird logo.

In three years time if Paul Cannell is not a superstar artist with constant
exhibitions in every main city throughout the world come and find me...

You've got to know how to draw, you've got to have control of your fucking hand. All this work that you see here, is done with the other hand, it's not even done with my natural hand. I changed my hands about three and half years ago because I was sick of what my left hand was doing. I like drawing with my right hand because it's messy, it's like a kid. It's clumsy. All this clumsy work you're seeing here, that's why it's clumsy. That's the only way I've been able to build abstraction. I was getting too dangerously technical with this arm. So...I'm not a very good artist and I don't particularly like doing record covers. It's a good feeling when it's done and it's released and you walk into a record shop, that's a nice buzz.

One of the most exciting
young artists in Britain, Paul Cannell mixes high
colour vivid expressionism and a contempt for the laws of copyright
to create painting montages
and images...painting the falling sun for Primal Scream's highly
acclaimed 'Screamadelica' album he caught the childlike wonder the
recording is streaked with.
