Colin Culley
Painting
Colin is a versatile artist who uses a variety of media to express his interpretation of the world around him. Colour and nature continue to be strong influences on his work. He enjoys pushing the boundaries by experimenting with new ideas, methods and materials. Painting, sketching, visiting exhibitions and meeting other artists are sources of enjoyment and pleasure.
As Colin's work continues to evolve there has been a move towards 'narrative paintings' including aspects of everyday life, world issues and even mythology. The message or story in a piece of artwork can evoke emotion, discussion and debate. For Colin, a successful image is one which stimulates such a reaction.
After working as an artist in residence for Forestry England, Colin has maintained his strong association with Dalby Forest and he continues to focus on the development of the drystone wall maze and its link with the solstice, stone circles and henges. Photography has become an integral element of this particular project .
