Mike Turner

Biography

I was born far too long ago in West Yorkshire and now live in Nottinghamshire via the West Midlands, London, Canada and Oxfordshire. I started watercolour painting about seven years ago after my wife bought me a totally unexpected birthday present of a painting set including folding easel. I have been a member of a local art club, on and off, for about 5 years and I think that my work has improved since I rejoined the club 18 months ago. I love loose wet-on-wet and pen-and-wash landscapes. I hope that by joining this group and displaying my work I will receive the critiques and advice that I need to improve.
