Michael Duxbury

Biography

I'm 65 years old, I started drawing and painting when I was quite young unfortunately when I left school my art took a back seat and even more so when I got married and had children. I took it up again about six years ago when I needed to finish work due to ill health (cancer which is now stage 4). Apart from thoroughly enjoying it, I find it very theraputic (it takes my mind off my health problems). I work mainly in watercolour but dabble in inks and acrylics but am always keen to look at other mediums. I had my first one man exhibition in 2023 and raised £700 for the Lilac cancer centre in St.Helens.
