Paul Brokensha

New Oriel Hall Group Exhibition

I began ‘doing art’ in 1970, experimenting with painting, drawing, printmaking and sculpture, but there was little direction in my painting until nearly 30 years ago when I started using acrylic (rather than oil) and I began also to work from photographs taken on my travels, rather than directly from life or still-life in the studio. 

My choice of subject has since evolved from, typically, scenes of streams and pathways in wooded landscapes to the wider landscapes of the coast, to seascapes and skies and, recently, to more urban subjects. 

I’m treating this year’s show as a retrospective, exhibiting several of my earlier paintings for sale at ‘knockdown’ prices.
