TONY SUTCLIFFE CV
Born in 1948 in London
In 2001 I relocated to Carbis Bay after 30 years visiting Cornwall. During this time my development in painting had changed to the style you see today. My love for music, interest in pre and post Roman Britain and now submerged in the beauty of Penwith, a remote enigmatic pagan landscape with the relationship of land and sea, all has helped push the development of my work. I find the positive aspect of working in the non-figurative style gives me the freedom to use all these influences, but do not strive for interpretation of my paintings, the painting represents nothing but itself. Influences in art at this time are the Pre-Raphaelites, the German romantics, Gerhard Richter and Anselm Kiefer.
Works in Private Collections in England, Norway, USA and the Netherlands.
