John Horsewell

From a very early age, Essex born John Horsewell was aware of the love for art in his family; it was as natural to pick up a paintbrush as it was for him to learn to walk, as both his grandfather and his parents are professional artists.

Whilst at school he experimented in all forms of painting and although he became proficient in many media, including pastel and watercolour, he soon realised that oils were ideal for his style and to give full expression for his use of colour and light.

Upon leaving school, he entered the world of interior design continuing to paint in his spare time, exhibiting paintings first locally and then as his reputation spread, exhibitions were held in London, Birmingham, Manchester and other major cities.

In 1978 he finally decided to concentrate fully on his art and since that date, has gone from strength to strength and his paintings are now in collections in the United States, Japan and Great Britain.
