Coming soon: The Arts Class, Portraits by David Phillips BA.
David's bio:
"In 1995 I graduated from De Montfort University, Leicester, with a BA Hons in Fine Art. I had been a mechanic for 25 years and although I had been drawing and painting in my spare time, my degree studies started my passion for focusing on my art and developing my techniques. Now I am retired, I can devote a lot more time to my art and enjoy creating challenging work.
I have been a member of the Lincolnshire Artists Society for 20 years. My work is mainly figurative, with elements of abstraction in some pieces. My work is influenced by my life experiences and my interest in German expressionism, American artists such as Grant Wood and Edward Hopper, and British artist Stanley Spencer.
My portraiture work is mainly within the mediums of oil paint and charcoal. I regularly receive commissions and have produced artwork for individuals and establishments from all over the UK, including illustrations for a book of short stories."
16th - 28th March 2026 at the Carre Gallery.
