Greenhalf SWLA
Robert was born in 1950 at Haywards Heath, Sussex, England. He studied at
Eastbourne and Maidstone Colleges of Art, graduating in 1971 with a Diploma in
Art and Design in Graphics.
Robert works mainly in Watercolour, Oils, Woodcut and Drypoint. The Drypoints
and some of the Woodcuts are printed in black and hand-coloured with
Watercolour, whilst others involve the cutting and printing of a separate block
for each colour.
His subjects are mainly Wildlife, Domestic Animals, and Landscape. He places
great emphasis upon observing and sketching in the field and his Watercolours
are frequently made directly from life. This approach lends a lively
spontaneity and authenticity to the work, which is often difficult to achieve
in the studio.
