Ashton Chadwick
Ashton Chadwick is a Royal Academy Schools post graduate, former Head of Putney School of Art and former principal of Blackheath School of Art.
He is particularly interested in the qualities of light in landscape, which he expresses in a variety of ways, from cast shadows to reflections. The activity of mark making and layering of colours or tones is often the primary dynamic of his work.
In all his work he constantly uses drawing to inform his creativity and the Devon coast and countryside are wonderful sources of inspiration, especially the interaction of people and animals in ths environment. He skilfully uses a range of materials, from charcoal, pencil and oil pastel to watercolour, oil paint, ink and acrylic.
