Mark Braithwaite
He is a self taught artist and his biggest influences are the Baroque School and the Impressionist Movement. His landscapes are worked in oil- acrylic- watercolour or pastel. Fascinated with the fast disappearing red telephone box- he painted the “Lost Connection” series- a tribute to this great British icon- which received much acclaim in the national press.
He has been privileged to be chosen twice as a Regimental artist for the British Army- for the Signal Regiment and for the Royal Artillery. Other corporate clients have included Nestle UK and GMB Unio
He was a finalist in the annual Art Business Today/ Canon competition.
In 2008- he was kindly invited by the owners of stately home- Newby Hall (location of recent film Mansfield Park)- to produce a series of figurative drawings and paintings featuring the fantastic backdrop of the Hall. This work was exhibited in the Hall as a one man show in March and April 2008
