Colin Monk has been painting, drawing and taking photographs since he was a boy in the Kent countryside from the mid 1960s. Now an established artist working and exhibiting in and around the Midlands and the South East of England, he produces finely crafted work which is immediate and poignant in its effect. His pictures can create a feast for the eyes in any room, whether you choose a pencil drawing or a large image with his characteristically rich colours.
You can view a wide selection of Colin’s work on the Gallery and Archive pages.
This is art which invites you to take a fresh look at everyday life and everyday memories, which he captures in a quiet, contemplative fashion. The work draws you in, to step out of time for a moment, and be transported to another place. Some of his most recent work mixes his two passions, fine art and photography, to evoke the way our memories overlie the present.
