Andrew Giddens

Andrew lives with his wife and two children just yards from the sea in West Cornwall. Painting from his cliff top studio he has unbroken views of the southern horizon. Andrew Giddens works mainly in oils, embracing a range of techniques including glazing, impasto and direct painting.

He says : "My subjects are often the light, atmosphere and beauty of places I know well, that I have visited many times. In all my paintings the aim is to convey some of this emotion to the viewer. I also work on projects usually based on a particular stretch of coast or a specific time of day and this ends with an exhibition."
