Art by Wendy Cook

Picture
I am an artist based in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England.  I am totally self taught and have been full time since March 2009.  I have not had any training in art at all except for advice from books about techniques etc.  I particularly enjoy portraiture and still life.  A lot of the subjects that I choose to paint come from images that I have seen, either in films, books, newspapers or in daily life.  If I see an image that I really like then I will attempt to paint it, they never end up looking like the image that I have seen and I am learning to live with that.  Someone once said to me that "if you want to replicate an image exactly then take a photo", I have to go along with that as my images never seem to be close to the real thing.  My work is mainly sold in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire although I have also sold in Florida, California, Germany and Scotland.    I admire many artists and have my own collection of other artists work.  I would love to be able to paint like Lucien Freud, his work is amazing.   I know that I should put down more info here and I probably will do but not today.   My email address is wacky120@hotmail.com  if you would like any further information,  I hope you enjoy my website.   Thank you for visiting.
