Brian John Rolls was born on 20 June 1944 in London, England. He has always been a person with broad interests and had a variety of businesses. Another hobby is travelling. During his travels, he developed a passion for painting. He gets his inspiration from the people he meet and the places he has visited.
Brian with recent artwork
Brian is self-taught. He loves to experiment with different styles and various sizes of canvas and paper. His preferred method of painting is with acrylics, but he also uses felt-pens, ink and any drawing material that is available to him; he has been known to use coffee and tea in his works. Brian has been creating many new works in 2007, on 60cm x 80cm canvas and drawings on 27cm x 35cm, 300gms watercolour paper, using watercolour pencils and acrylic paint. Too many to put them all on his website.
Statement:
"My paintings and drawings are colourful and expressive. I let my imagination
take over, none of my work is copied. I tried to be as free as possible
with my expressions. I am self taught, but I am influenced by various modern
and classic painters.
studio
I have named some of my paintings, but I prefer the viewer to look at
my paintings and let their imagination run free and see the hidden images,
which I have painted subconsciously in some of them. I hope you will get
as much pleasure looking at my paintings and drawings, as I had creating
them. My motto is: beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Hope you'll enjoy my work".
