A day with artist Derek Boshier at his studio as he works on a new painting and reflects on his life and career. Boshier burst onto the British art scene in the sixties as one of the young artists who pioneered the British pop art movement. He studied at the Royal College of Art and starred in Pop Goes the Easel, Ken Russell's seminal Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ film about the pop art scene. Now in his seventies and living and working in LA, Derek remains as energetic and prolific as ever.
