Street Artist's Bold Career Leap Pays Off
6 Sep
Summary
- Nathan Murdoch left a health and safety career to pursue art.
- He appeared on BBC's Dragons' Den last week.
- His art business has seen significant growth post-show.
In 2018, Nathan Murdoch made a significant career change, leaving behind a decade-long role as a health and safety manager to pursue his passion as a full-time artist. This bold decision, initially met with skepticism from his former chief executive, has since blossomed into a thriving street art business.
Now 40 years old and based in Peterborough, Murdoch has gained international recognition for his mural work. His appearance on the BBC One business show Dragons' Den last week has amplified his success, resulting in a flurry of job offers and new connections, describing the week as 'pretty intense' due to the overwhelming positive response.
