Neil Buchanan is a hero of our childhoods. He spent hour after hour, week after week messing around with PVA glue, glitter and a surprising amount of time drawing around plates.

But he's an actual real person who does real drawings that don't appear on telly.

With 17 years of broadcasting and a number of Baftas behind him, his pictures are a lasting reminder of his wonder.

And you buy a signed one for £50.

Try it yourself, to poorly use a quote he said on TV a lot...

He draws pretty things involving the dislike of ice-cream

And beautiful scenery with sheds for really tall people

But none of his characters seem to have faces

See?

No, really Neil, where are the faces?

Neil, come on now, they might crash if they don't look up

This bird has a face, right, it's sorted. We assume humans will be next...

Hold on, praying is not an excuse for not showing your face

COME ON NEIL BUCHANAN, WHY CAN'T YOU DRAW FACES?

Ok, well, that sort of counts but it's a drawing of a drawing of a face. The jury's out Neil. It's a a good job we love you and your Art Attacks

UPDATE:

Neil Buchanan, who is perhaps the nicest man in the world, gave us a call and explained himself:

"I actually lived as a portrait artist for two years and this was my first private collection," he said.

"I didn’t want it to be connected to Art Attack and didn’t want it to be connected to portraits.

"I can do portraits, they're difficult and a lot of hard work but this was a choice."

Neil, we love you even more now... if that was possible.
