Fascinated by the vast open spaces of the English countryside, Nicholas Hely Hutchinson is an established landscape painter based in Dorset.
The subject matter of many of his paintings offer glimpses of his own life – a figure in a bathroom, the flight of a bird on a cold winter landscape, a pair of cows peering over a wall. Nicholas Hely Hutchinson’s style has a distinctive intensity of colour – whether working in oils on canvas or in gouache and pastel on paper. His atmospheric work captures the mood of a place with acute observation, distilling the essence of his environment both abroad and closer to home.
Nicholas Hely Hutchinson studied at St Martin’s School of Art and Bristol Polytechnic. Since his first exhibition in 1984, Hely Hutchinson has exhibited consistently in London, Dublin and Hong Kong with many paintings featuring in private and corporate collections worldwide.
