About
In November's Collection Conversation, we will be joined by Chris Dunn and Andrew Lansley.
After studying at Bath Spa University, Chris Dunn worked as a freelance illustrator producing portraits and conceptual illustrations. A commission to illustrate the Wind in the Willow, has led to him beginning a full-time artist specialising in traditional children's book watercolour illustration. He now works from Calne where the surrounding countryside is a constant source of inspiration.
Andrew Lansley produces work from many different but direct sources. This may entail a variety of material abstractions or work directly related to impressions and experience of the landscape. In using raw pigments combined with a variety of mediums he achieves a direct connection to the elemental quality of landscape. Working in this way can be explosively fast and at other times may be meticulously analytical.
