Roger Holmes

Biography

I am a self taught artist living in Saltash, South East Cornwall where I have lived for nearly 40 years. I am inspired by the fabulous coastline and landscape of the west country which I frequently travel around gathering inspiration for my work which is predominantly in pastels though I often work in other mediums as well. Being a self taught artist, my style of painting has undergone a natural evolution from a fairly tight style to a much looser impressionistic interpretation of the Landscape and Seascape. I now paint full time and have held a solo exhibition at "The Wharf" in Tavistock and more recently at the Ashtorre Arts Center which is located beneath the Brunel Bridge on Saltash Waterside . More exhibitions are planned in the future and my work will also be appearing in several galleries.
