Bob Brandt

Born in Stockport in 1935, Bob developed an early interest in painting, becoming one of the first pupils at the grammar school to study art to A-level standard. With encouragement from the school Bob submitted work to an open exhibition in Stockport and was accepted.

He later read law at Bristol University, where he met his wife Helen, and practised as a solicitor in Bristol for over thirty years. During that time he kept up a keen interest in art, attending evening classes and becoming a member of an enthusiastic art group.

On retiring from practise in 1989, he was able to attend the Queen’s Road School of Art & Design in Bristol to study life drawing and painting. He held his first one-man show at the Yallop Gallery in the Wye Valley in 1993, and a series of exhibitions in the West of England followed. By this time he had started teaching at his art group. His first article on painting was accepted by the Artists & Illustrators Magazine in January 1994 and he has been published regularly since. He has contributed to a number of art books published in the United States and Britain.

With their four children married and living away from Bristol, Bob and Helen moved to North Norfolk in 1995. Here Bob paints, teaches and writes about painting. He has published postcards, greetings cards and prints and has designed greetings cards for Ling’s Cards and Gibson International.

He is represented locally in North Norfolk and Suffolk and shows annually in London. Limited edition prints of some of his Cornish paintings are published by Chase Art Publications in Wadebridge, Cornwall. His paintings are in private collections not only in Europe but as far a field as India and Australia, and have also been bought for the National Trust.

Bob has just been accepted to exhibit one of his works in this year's Royal Society of Marine Artist exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London.

He works in a variety of styles and media but particularly enjoys pursuing the representational tradition, in order to record and celebrate the days in which we live.
