ARTISTS / Bert Evans
​
I was born and bred in Port Talbot. I attended Newport Art College 1967 -72, which gave me such an essential grounding in the understanding of colour theory, composition and a bold, figurative approach to painting.
He is primarily a painter of light, which he says makes the most mundane scenes and subjects interesting. His loose approach complemented by a good understanding of colour always attracts a positive reaction from observers. He is a firm believer in only painting from situations he has witnessed first hand. ” How else can I be sincere in my work?” he asks.
​
Although he has enjoyed experimenting in watercolour, its his oil paintings that have earned him his reputation and he can count Hollywood actor Michael Sheen to be a big fan of his work, having purchased several Bert Evans Originals.
