Philip Beadle

Philip Beadle

Philip works in oil, water colour, drypoint and monotype. He enjoys working with form, colour and light, especially low winter and evening light which facilitates the wide tonal range in which he relishes.
Living in the South Island Philip finds plenty of city and rural landscapes an immediate source of inspiration - in particular the Canterbury plains and mountains, as well as the Central Otago lakes, vineyards and mountains.
He enjoys travelling and also painting overseas locations as well as regularly meeting with a life drawing group and incorporating the female nude into part of his work.
