John Horsewell has been a professional artist since 1978, selling his paintings to UK galleries & art lovers nationwide continuously since the 1980s, which in itself remains a remarkable achievement. Many today have dubbed him Britain’s ‘modern landscape master.’
He has recently released his first ever collection of limited editions: the 'John Horsewell - Studio Edition Collection', all hand finished of course, and he can be commissioned for your own custom original artwork needs - please get in touch.
Born in Essex, he first gained traction selling locally (no doubt via his nearest gallery) including our own London & Essex galleries, then expanding with trade buyers in London, Birmingham & Manchester. By the late 1980s, he was established on UK gallery walls & indeed in exhibition space such as the Ideal Home Exhibition in Earls Court, London - our family business having exhibited his artwork there for many years!
Spanning the genre of ‘original English oil paintings’ (country scenes), to the noughties (2000s) fashion for desert island canvases, right up to the modern landscapes of today, John has proved his style has a timeless elegance that continues to attract the art buying public.
During his years in education, he did engage with various painting mediums but settled on oil paints, feeling it gave him the most versatility to convey his artistic message & to portray different shades of light.
John specialises in beaches & boating scenes, but also can turn his hand to cityscapes and contemporary rural British countryside and it clear his techniques and skills evolve. His parents and indeed grandfather where all artists and he showed a natural talent for painting since childhood.
Now residing in Suffolk area, he has his own home studio and is inspired by the lush landscape of surrounding Suffolk and neighbouring Essex counties.
