BEN CATT
Ben was born in London in 1970. He studied sculpture at Newcastle Polytechnic gaining a BA Hons. Now living and working in Penwith, Cornwall. The inspiration for my work is locally sourced from the landscape near to my home. I try to paint to evoke the feeling that the countryside and coastland can conjour up. Seeing the attraction in all the seasons and the multitude of weather conditions that can change within minutes is a costant thrill on the senses. Paintings are often places that I have visited time and time again with my family or on my own. Bringing with them feelings from joy and hapiness to amazement and isolation. It’s a unique place and I hope that comes across in my work.
