Originals by Terry Evans
Sussex artist well known for using palette knife and stipple work.
Terry Evans was born in 1943 in Romford, Essex. He is a big, outgoing and popular man which he modestly puts down to being born under the sign of Aries the Ram.
Terry started painting for self-satisfaction, his subjects were portraits, racing-cars and dogs. Terry experimented with water-colour and acrylics and then he tried oils. Terry explains that this was a turning point in his career as he found the exxpressive freedom of working in paint that stayed workable for days. A second breakthrough came when he used oils to paint landscapes. By popular demand, he turned professional and for many years has enjoyed run-away success.
Terry Evans aattended art school at Hornsea but his unique and distinctive style was inspired by the renowned artist, Charles Lefar. It is characteristic of Terry Evans that he openly acknowledges the debt that he owes to the older artist. But Terry has taken the approach further and developed it into a style uniquely his own.
A "Terry Evans" is much more detailed, and crisper in technique, than his mentor's work. Not only does Terry Evans wield his palette knife with aplomb but he also adds fine subtle touches with a thin long-haired sable.
Terry generously loads the canvas with oil paint, lavishly applied with gusto. The canvasses groan under the weight of his impasto sculptureed landscapes. The penny-pinching disciplines of a formal fine art training are completely unobserved.
Evans has also added his own subject preferences to the style. The paintings tell of a wilderness with running water, glades, rocks, pools, mountains, trees and flowers.
Terry Evans' paintings are of unspoilt nature in the raw. Not even an old rotting fence-post is allowed to spoil these landscapes. Nowhere in a Terry Evans will you find a trace of Mankind.
Terry Evans has exhibited in his own one-man shows in Langres Gallery, New York, Stavanger Norway, Rubens Gallery Miami, Singapore, London and elsewhere. Terry Evans pictures are collected by a wide public, among others the Russioan Ambassador to London, Barclays Bank and the Queen of Ghadaf, Saudi Arabia. The Queen gave him a pesonal gift of an 18 carat gold pen and pencil set when he delivered her paintings!
Terry Evans lives on the South Coast and paints every day at his easel.
