Ben is a Bath based landscape and portrait artist who works predominately in oils, favouring a brisk, impressionist approach.
His subject matter varies but he is mostly drawn to city street scenes and his paintings in their different ways demonstrate his fascination with light, whether it is the luminosity of the Venetian lagoon or the rainy duplications of wet pavements.
Entirely self-taught he has acquired a painterly language that communicates movement and light with minimum fuss and maximum conviction.
His work has been recognised with several awards including the Davison Award from the Royal Society of British Artists and the Best Emerging Artist Prize and Viewer's Choice Award from the Royal West of England Academy. His work is included in numerous private collections including that of Standard Chartered Bank and the University of Oxford.
