Daniel Shadbolt paints portraits, landscapes and still life using cleverly contrasting soft colours and shadow. In this episode, he talks about his experience at Chelsea College of Art and the Royal Drawing School, examples of inspiring advice he’s been given by both tutors and other artists, the influence of Impressionism and post-Impressionism on his oil painting, how his style has become more abstracted, how he handles colour, how he draws the viewer into his landscapes and still life work, and about some of his regular sitters.
