Graham Sheen

Born in 1982 in Corby, Northamptonshire.I am currently living in Corby with my daughter. I find this helps me to keep active, creative and never in the same place, as anyone with children will know it keeps you busy. Each day is different and I believe this reflects in my artwork. I have been painting since 1999 and have found most enjoyment when using acrylic on canvas. I have however started to use other materials in my work. Taking inspiration from artists such as Phillip Sutton, Jackson Pollock and Dilorenzo my work has no rules. I have moved in to the world of abstract art, have created woodcuts and other exciting pieces. I take commissions and have recently completed two pieces for visitors to my site.

I am a self taught artist having done an art GCSE at school but going no further with art as an education I decided to learn for myself and research techniques from other artists as well as creating my own techniques.
I have had numerous exhibitions in the local northants area as well as setting up a website to promote my work to a worldwide audience.
