Ken Bromley Art Supplies

Ken Howard's painting is essentially about light. He believes that as a subject changes so much throughout the day, it is not possible to work on the same painting for much longer than an hour. In this film he paints in oils in London. He paints a series of boards as the light changes, firstly of Tower Bridge and then the Royal Exchange in the City. Selecting the paintings of the Royal Exchange, he then shows us his approach to preparing, squaring up and painting a large canvas, working from these smaller boards.

Ken Howard R.A. studied at Hornsey College of Art and the Royal College of Art. He was the official artist in Northern Ireland 1973-80 and became an elected member of the Royal Academy in 1992. Ken is a past president of the New English Art Club and a member of all the major art societies. He has had numerous one-man exhibitions worldwide and his paintings are in many public collections.
