Born in 1967, strongman Rudi Mineur has enjoyed a spectacular circus career performing his final show with Circa in 2015.
I was drawn to Rudi when I learnt what he was doing to maintain his strength post circus, inventing physical challenges which he would tackle every day.
The message in my painting is for all those in the Creative Industries to stay strong like Rudi. Work hard at what you love, be resilient, take the knocks and never give up.
