13th-19th Dec – Tom Gowen ‘IMPASTO’

IMPASTO an Exhibition of Oil paintings by Tom Gowen

13th – 19th December 2017

  • Tom was born in Cardiff 1987 and currently lives in Stroud. After graduating at Pittville Cheltenham he has worked solely on his art which has developed a strong following both locally and internationally. His work is available through regular exhibitions in the Cotwolds area and through his internet presence.
  • “I cannot remember a time when I was not drawing and painting.  It is simply how I live.

    I was educated in fine art at University of Gloucestershire (Cheltenham) and this has broadened my view and allowed me to freely work out what interests me and what I want to achieve with my work.

    When painting I enjoy the feel of using natural material and I try to convey the beauty I see in nature. I always develop a painting by thinking long and hard about the emotive, what it is that I feel I want to share.

    When the work goes well I like to think it will go to a good home -that someone will enjoy that reaction whenever they look at it.”
