Rob Frampton-Fell

Rob’s interest in painting began at a very early age following a visit, as a very young adolescent, to the original Tate Gallery. Thrilled by the works of the Modern Artists he determined one day he would follow his own creative path.

Despite being particularly interested in the works of the more abstract Modern Artists, initially, he began painting in a slightly formal, more representational, manner. However, very soon he became frustrated and dissatisfied with this style - it didn’t represent what he wanted to achieve, neither did it reflect his personality nor his motivation. Finally, he fixed the focus and energies of his work firmly on a style for which he truly felt a genuine passion and compulsion. Combining the essence of the ‘wild beast’ colours of the Fauvists and the sub-conscious spontaneity and gestural mark making of the Abstract Expressionists, Rob found his style. This passion and compulsion – first sparked as a young observer, now dazzles audaciously as a painter.

The starting point for his work usually begins from something observed, which is of a particular unusual interest, such as something peculiar in a landscape, odd looking places, curious groupings of objects, fantastic natural and man-made colour ...

Teachers’ Certificate in Education
M.A. Greenwich University

My first career was as a teacher of primary school children, working for many years as Deputy Head and Acting Head of a large primary school. One of my main teaching loves was teaching children about art and artists and enabling them to create their own works of art. My second career is what I am doing now as an artist.
