Martin Llewellyn was born in Neath in South Wales in 1963. A completely self-taught Welsh painter, he takes his inspiration from the dramatic coastline and landscape of his native land. Although beginning as a watercolour painter he has in recent years discovered the dramatic possibilities of working in oils with a palette knife.
Martin’s paintings are steeped in the traditions of his antecedents in the twentieth century Welsh Art school, particularly Gwilym Prichard, Charles Wyatt Warren and of course Sir Kyffin Williams. His richly textured oils in a subtle, muted palette beautifully capture the distinctive atmosphere of North Wales whether depicting the drama of Snowdonia or the Irish Sea breaking against the shores of Pembrokeshire.
