Simon Tupper - Paintings & drawings

In my painting I am looking to create a playful and painterly response to the natural world. Yet within the act of painting, sometimes, a harsher reality prevails. It is in this way that I consider myself a naïve realist.

Simon was born in Jersey in 1973. He grew up overlooking a herd of Jersey cows. He later studied a BA in fine art in Cornwall where he lived on a farm with a local cow farmer. In 1997 Simon travelled extensively around Argentina.

It was here he first experienced a "parrillada" and confess an addiction to "asado de tira". Simon is most celebrated a a painter of cows, he does however also paint dogs, people, birds, plants, elephants and camels! He is always welcoming to anybody who wished to visit his studio, and is currently running art classes.
