Philip Shadbolt in your extended network Posted at 10:50 AM Jul 23, 2007 view more
Originally from Australia, Philip had a background in Fine art, Graphic Design, & Illustration before returning to his Celtic Welsh roots in 1993. His passion for painting large scale figurative canvases, drawing his inspiration from his native Australia and time spent studying in India, uses hand-crafted skills & techniques that he has learnt to master over the years.
Most of his works have been created using oils and acrylics, gradualy building up the subtle layers of colour & texture to free his vision onto the canvas before him. Some of the larger works (for example Avatar and Lila) have taken several months to complete, due to the intricate levels of detail involved, and you can view a fabulous selection of his Figurative paintings on his website at ~ www.philipshadbolt.co.uk ~
Philip's works can now be found in collections all around the world, with his use of rich, vibrant colour and nature inspired subject matter providing a welcome escape from everyday life, and his Healing Arts have now become much sought after.
Although his time is spent working on his own new inspirational creations, he is still available to discuss your thoughts regarding commissioned artwork, or anything else, and is happy to arrange an appointment for you to visit his Brighton studio !
Philip is also co-creator of ~ Kundalini Arts ~ and in 2008 they were commissioned for the Karim Rashid designed Myhotel Brighton which features their images in all 80 guest rooms. You can see further inside the Interiors by viewing 'The Art of Myhotel Brighton' in the friends links below ...
Although they are currently working on new projects for private clients both in the UK and abroad, they still have time to discuss any ideas or suggestions you may have ... why not drop them a line !?
They now work mainly from their Brighton studio, creating inspirational images on an almost daily basis, and can also be found exploring in the Himalayas from time to time, recharging their creativity in one of the most magical places on Earth
Who I'd like to meet:
Philip is currently looking for Gallery Representation worldwide, as well as any retail connections who would be interested in stocking his Prints, Posters & Cards ... Also looking for new models to pose for the next collection of paintings ... and anyone else who feels like saying Hello, feel free to drop him a line ...
