Stephen Whatcott is a self-taught artist working in Worcestershire, UK producing minimalist, abstract expressionist paintings. With roots based on drawing, his work tends to utilise line and form. These largely monochrome abstract paintings explore solidity, texture and composition, often executed in a seemingly aggressive, or at least expressive, manner.

In 2015 Whatcott won the Painting category of the Secret Art Prize open art competition and in 2018 was shortlisted for the Rise Art Prize.
