Service and Inspiration

Hugh has served in the Yeomanry for 30 years, and now he exhibits his work at all the major History Festivals in England.  He is not a photo-realist, but a follower of painters like Titian, Caravaggio and Sargent.  His attention to military detail has a soldier’s eye whilst still retaining the painterly qualities of a loose almost impressionistic approach together with historic accuracy.

For those looking to commission their own piece of history, Hugh offers a collaborative process.  He honours the client’s vision while infusing it with his distinctive artistic style.
