Cornwall artist, Dean - who can be seen regularly painting at The Old Bank Gallery in Fowey - is an abstract expressionist. "There have been three major influences on me artistically. The art of Picasso, Pollock and De Kooning. However, the biggest influence on my art overall has been music. From blues rock to R&B, but especially the emotive guitar of the late great Jeff Beck, who could make a grown man cry with the virtuoso sound of his guitar."
Represented by The Old Bank Gallery since 2025, Dean’s solo exhibition runs from 10th to 23rd May, then into Cornwall Open Studios until 31st May.
Preview evening 12th May 5pm – 7pm
