Trevor is a painter who works in a variety of media including oil, acrylic, watercolour, egg tempera. He is also a printmaker, producing etchings and digital prints. Trevor’s work is a contemporary comment on the timeless beauty of the natural landscape and the built environment of Europe; a world that is preserved yet ever changing. Inspiration for his work ranges from the historic architecture of Venice to the English country landscape. His aim is to create lucid atmospheric sets of work that directly comment on his changing view of landscape, its timeless as well as its fragile qualities.
