Working predominantly in watercolour, Henry finds inspiration for his work in everyday experiences. Each day brings new creativity and artwork, be it a quickly realised sketch or time spent absorbed in the creation of a more developed piece. His fascination for the horizon evolves in an ever-changing line between space and solidity, whether it be landscape or city.

Sketchbooks line the shelves of the self-built studio in which Henry now works, filled on his travels since leaving art college through the US, the Far East and Australia, returning in more recent years to London.

“I find inspiration for my chosen medium of watercolour in any subject – landscapes, cities, street scenes, people, machines and even images from the TV – I will often sit down to watch telly with my pencil and sketchbook and draw. Success with watercolour is a challenge which requires spontaneity, confidence and many hours working with the medium. Whenever I look at a scene my subconscious begins to work out how I might paint it, capture light, movement, atmosphere. My painting of Somerset in Flood was selected to be exhibited and subsequently sold at the Sunday Times Watercolour Competition exhibition at the Mall Galleries in September 2014.”…………….

Henry is delighted to have recently sold his atmospheric and poignant painting “Somerset in Flood” whilst included in the prestigious 2014 Sunday Times Watercolour Exhibition at The Mall Galleries, London.
