Visions of Summer(s)
.........cont’d
Whilst researching various artists across the UK, I discovered the work of Charles Summers and stopped in my tracks.
Despite the huge difference in styles, he captured the
essence of the countryside through his collages, the spirit of
the coast with vibrant colours and through his commission
work of the elegant ladies fans, he captures all that is British.
So much so that Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother had
one and he was also commissioned in 2007 to create an
exclusive for HRH The Duchess Of Cornwall. He is now
working on a new design for HRH.
A self-taught painter with a healthy obsession in the natural
world, he has taken his experience of the English landscapes,
the rain forests of Asia and Central and South America, and
more recently the Sahara desert, and captured their essence
in design.
His paintings can be found worldwide within collections
but here you can view a small selection, but do look at the
website and if you can, make an appointment for a visit or to
discuss your own commission.
