Guy Chapman ARBSA

February 25 - April 6

Guy Chapman is a completely self-taught full-time artist and has been drawing from early childhood. He joined EMI Records in 1992, during which time he started drawing portraits for some of the label’s famous music artists, and also started creating detailed pictures of knights and castles. Guy developed a style he terms “Imaginaria” – because it is within the imagination that creativity is born!  Indeed, Einstein is quoted as saying imagination is more important than knowledge.

Guy is attracted to the endless possibilities the imagination affords and particularly likes small detail which is increasingly apparent in his latest works, often hiding small details deliberately within the art for discovery by the viewer.

Guy has illustrated books, is designing a second children’s book, and in the very early stages of doing some work for a children’s author. He became a full member of the Cotswold Craftsmen Guild in 2023 and in 2024 successfully became an Associate of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (RBSA), the defining moment of his career to date.

Guy continues to exhibit at selected venues in Malvern, Birmingham, Warwickshire, and London annually.

Exhibition ends: Saturday 5 April 5.00pm
