Neil canning is a contemporary British artist whose work appears in private, public and important corporate collections throughout the world. From his early beginnings in Oxfordshire to rural Wales and Cornwall, landscape has always been a major source of inspiration. Since 1997 it is Cornwall that he now calls home. The coast and moors of this beautiful and dramatic peninsular have helped to give his work a sense of space and drama. The other notable development over recent years is that Neil’s subject matter has become much more diverse. Trips to both New York and Hong Kong resulted in an ongoing series of abstracted cityscapes where skyscrapers are transformed into intense pillars of light. Travel has often been the catalyst that allowed a change of direction, introducing new forms or colour combinations.
