Simon Farnell

My passion is figure drawing from life and I am regularly attending life drawing sessions working with different media .  On line resources are also useful references.  No formal training but I have attended various master-classes and skills sessions and have brought something away from each which is very gratifying.

What more can I say, I love it and hope that this comes across in the artwork.

I have had my work exhibited in St Ives, selected for the School of Art 'Sloop Inn' show and at the St Ives Art Club members exhibition, also previously at the St Agnes Art Society members show and have sold many pieces through internet gallery sites.  Most of my commission work has been for animal portraits which have been well received. 

I am lucky to be living in an area of great beauty and of world recognised historical importance which gives access to subjects such as industrial archaeology and coastline landscapes.  I also visit the Brittany region of France regularly which is a further source of inspiration.  You will often find me with sketchbook in hand on the cross channel ferry from Plymouth to Roscoff, an ideal way to while away the six hour journey.
