A tribute to David Bowie drew ridicule yesterday after its creation was documented on Twitter by BBC Radio Sheffield. Which wasn’t very nice for the artist who created it, Trik. Though it does sort of look like the missing link between Pat Sharp and Russell Howard.

Trik told the BBC: “I’m looking at the reaction right now. It’s not very nice to see people talking about me as an artist. I’m going to get a picture of it, so it will be fine, but I’ve got to do what I’ve got to do. Let them hate, I’m finding it fun”.

Meanwhile, enough people pointed out the similarity to Pat Sharp that Surrey radio station Eagle Radio got the man himself to pose bemused next to a photo of the artwork.
