The background

In parallel to Graphic Art, Renos kept his interest in Fine Art alive with workshops in composition and painting at Sir John Cass but above all Life Drawing which he studied for many years, first at St Martins School of Art then at Byam Shaw School of Art under Ann Dowker. Added to these were several painting and drawing workshops at the Slade and the Prince Charles Drawing Foundation. Most of his life he has expressed himself as a Graphic Design Artist but he is now taking Fine Art to a much more serious and professional level.
He is also involved with his local art scene in Barnet, Hertfordshire.


Artist's Statement

"I have a great passion for nature and what surrounds it. Whether they are flowers, fields, mountains, lakes, creatures of the wild, seascapes, boats or peoples activities. I enjoy every opportunity to travel around the country or abroad to places which inspire me, always accompanied by a sketchbook and camera, then complete my work in my studio.

In recent years I have been attracted by the beauties of the Greek Islands, Nepal, The Canadian Rockies, British Columbia, Italy of course and in general London, the Lake District, the West Country and the South Coast. Only time prevents me covering everything that I admire and long to put on canvas.

My future will be a natural development of my current figurative work without limitations or planning. Emotions and feelings are executed in a spontaneous and expressionist way - as it comes."


His Work

Renos' work has been exhibited since the late 1960's in group, duo and solo exhibitions. They have all been viewed favourably and many artworks have been purchased by individuals, private collections, business and banking groups.
