About Brian Halton
Hello Im Brian Halton and for the last 25 years I have lived in the wilds of West Yorkshire where I have a small, modest studio/gallery.
I find inspiration in most subjects – landscapes, cityscapes, seascapes, sport, animals etc but the majority of my work is connected with equestrian and in particular horse racing. Commissioned work is a large part of how I make a living but I also enjoy all aspects of horse racing – the action, jockeys, gallops, stables, head studies, racecourse scenes etc.
I use a variety of materials, oils, acrylics, watercolour and mixed media but work primarily in pastel on sanded board.
Pastels suit the way I work – I can get intricate detail or expressive movement, huge choice of colours, no drying time, no cleaning, will never fade or crack and working on a sanded board they really bite into the surface. They are easy to transport and also photograph brilliantly for future prints.About the Product
The work has been done on to Fisher 400 Art Pastel Paper. The technique involves building layers of watercolour onto the surface and then working over the top in pastels.
The work will sent unframed in a heavy duty roll. Don’t be worried that the work is sent unframed. This means that delivery is free, it arrives safely and you can chose your own frame. You do not even have to handle the painting. I will provide detailed instructions. All you have to do is take the roll to your local framer, chose your own frame and he will do the rest. If you require further information regarding this painting please ask, I will respond quickly.
