Alexander Green

I am a Welsh Artist currently living in Newport. After completing an Art Foundation course in Cardiff I went on to Graduated with a Fine Art Degree from Canterbury Christ Church University in 2011.

The Paintings arrive from direct observation of a chosen subject. This can be a still life, a single flower or a person. Drawings are a way of recording the subject and finding a boundary that best suits it allowing the subject to be given a purpose which can be taken to the canvas.

Influences and Inspirations can come in different forms. Viewing other artists work will often inspire painting because of the beauty of the painting, or the style might influence me to try something new. Sometimes inspiration can come from everyday walking, books, film or music. It can often be the smallest things that open up new ideas and thoughts.
