From
an early age Wilfrid painted and played music; and for a short period of
time attended Chesterfield School of Art. After service with No 3 Army Commando in Normandy and Europe
he continued to exhibit paintings and etchings whilst working in the
building trade, also as a musician in ballrooms and jazz venues.
As
a mature student, Wilfrid studied printmaking and painting at
Chesterfield College of Art.
Wilfrid’s
love of walking and the countryside inspires his paintings of Derbyshire
and Yorkshire Dales. He
also paints in Cornwall each year, exhibiting in the Cornish galleries. |
