Collection Conversations - Chris Dunn & Andrew Lansley

In November’s Collection Conversation, we will be joined by Chris Dunn and Andrew Lansley.

After studying at Bath Spa University, Chris Dunn worked as a freelance illustrator producing portraits and conceptual illustrations. A commission to illustrate 'The Wind in the Willows' led him to begin a full-time career as an artist specialising in traditional children’s book watercolour illustration. He now works from Calne, where the surrounding countryside is a constant source of inspiration.

Andrew Lansley produces work from many different but direct sources. This may entail a variety of material abstractions or work directly inspired by impressions and experiences of the landscape. By using raw pigments combined with a variety of mediums, he achieves a direct connection to the elemental quality of landscape. Working in this way can be explosively fast and at other times meticulously analytical.
