Heseltine was brought up in Cornwall, studied painting
at Norwich School of Art and after a successful career
in music returned to live in his spiritual home of West
Penwith. Reconnection with these timeless landscapes has
resulted in a return to painting and his opening show
with Beside The Wave was described as a "virtuoso
performance" and attracted considerable critical
acclaim. Since then Heseltine's work has continued to
attract serious interest from collectors, including painter
collectors, and he is without doubt, 'one to watch.' |

| "I
have been searching for places or buildings that I can
draw repeatedly - formerly Norwich Cathedral and currently
both at Tree Cliff and the view over the roofs of Morrab
Road in Penzance. My work is executed spontaneously and
quickly, sometimes allowing forms to enter the work subconsciously.
De Kooning once likened the concept of abstraction to
Lewis Carol's Cheshire cat when the smile remained even
after the cat had vanished. The way I work aims to embrace
these essences such as rhythm and suggestions of form,
and combine them with my more simple position as an observer
of what is in front of me." |
