Jeremy Farmer

Jeremy Farmer was born in England and lives in London.

His tastes in art are eclectic and constantly evolving. In the early part of his painting career, he was influenced by artists such as Hockney, Matisse, Picasso and Rembrandt and more recently by Richter, Katz, Mondrian and Friedrich.

He is largely self-taught but has received invaluable instruction and encouragement from his fellow artists: Aris Raissis, Emma Thistleton, Andrew Macintosh, Will Ayres and Jeremy Dickinson at Delta Studios.

The places of inspiration for Farmer’s work come from numerous family visits to Cornwall since early childhood. This provided him with an enduring love of the sea and the rugged coastline of North Cornwall. He has also drawn inspiration from a mountainous area in Lower Austria where his wife’s family come from and from extensive travel to more distant shores. Indeed, from these places, the sea, the land and the cityscape are recurring elements within his architectural compositions.

Farmer says, “My work increasingly explores the concept of order versus disorder through the observation of structure, light and space and the organic, chaotic world of nature. I always look to experiment and am developing this current line of work tow...

Farmer won the Art Prize at Harrow School in 1967 and 68.
