Guy Denning was born in 1965 in Bristol and began to paint in oil when he was 11. He applied to the Fine Arts School several times in the '80s but was not accepted, so he just learned the technical aspects of painting or charcoal drawing from artists he met and from his conversations with more experienced painters that he was meeting in Somerset.
He studied Art History and he got a diploma of The Open University. He has had various jobs from the age of 20, to support his family, while continuing to paint. In 2007, he moved to France and today he lives in Brittany and he devotes himself to painting full-time.
