Ben is an artist born of Yorkshire, now living in Donegal, Ireland. His recent work is inspired by the land
and sea of the Inishowen Peninsula of Donegal, Ireland. The ever changing environment that surrounds
him providing a sense of peace through its rural setting, whilst the wild Atlantic coastline offers an edgy
unpredictability. He is often driven to convey a sense of movement and rhythm, influenced as much by his
passion for music as the rugged landscape and sea that stirs him. He paints subjects that move him, but
ultimately he wants his work to connect with others, and to communicate a sense of creation and
possibility.
