ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Suffolk Beach is a realist oil painting on canvas, 16 x 16 inches (approx 40 x 40cm). The viewer is looking directly out to sea from the standpoint of the waters edge towards a dramatic breaking wave. Inspired by walks along the English Suffolk coast, Christopher Witchall continues his preoccupation with the light, movement and colours of the ocean, a movement frozen in time between the ancient past and an endless future. The artist’s unsentimental approach to his subjects combine two great passions - a love of traditional painting techniques and a fascination with the photographic image. The result of this are paintings that are both painterly and highly realistic. Suffolk Beach is painted on a stretched canvas and is ready to hang unframed or framed. It is signed on the back of the canvas and supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

I am a British realist artist whose subjects include seascape, urban architecture and landscape, particularly the farmlands of the Cambridgeshire fens in east England, where I have lived, explored, painted and photographed of over 30 years. I studied Fine Art at York School of Art and Lancaster (Preston Polytechnic) in the 1970's and have continued to paint and regularly exhibit. After a long and happy career as an art gallery manager, curator and gallery owner I turned full-time professional artist in 2010. My work combines a love for traditional painting techniques with a fascination with the language and conventions of photography. My paintings reside in private collections throughout the UK, USA, Europe, Australia, Singapore and Japan.
