Description

Mike Bernard captures the character of London through a layered mix of oil, acrylic, collage and mixed media. brings together the city's historic architecture and recognisable skyline with a more abstract, textural approach.

Built up through expressive brushwork, collage and contrasting tones, the work has a wonderfully atmospheric quality, balancing the familiar with the more fragmented and painterly. A striking original for collectors drawn to contemporary interpretations of London.

Mike Bernard, Tower of London & The Thames

Mike Bernard

United Kingdom  • 1957

Presentation

Born in Kent in 1957, award winning Mike Bernard trained at the West Surrey College of Art & Design, Farnham, followed by postgraduate studies at the Royal Academy Schools. Since then, he has exhibited widely in London and the provinces. The artist was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour in 1997. He moved to Devon in 2008 where he has been inspired by the amazing light.

Mike Bernard enjoys experimenting with media and techniques, often using mixed media incorporating collage and acrylics. Mike has used paper collage for several years and has developed a highly original and appealing style of his own. As a base to his paintings it has allowed him to create abstract structures that in turn develop into those “happy accidents" which come about from time to time. Random textures, colours and shapes suddenly fall into place. This method allows picture to evolve their own personality as they progress, which avoids them becoming over-representational.
