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. |
