Artistic Statement

Based in Seaton Delaval, Northumberland, Bob Turnbull works from a small studio within his home. Northumbrian born, he has been both a semi and professional artist for over 40 years, after studying Fine Art at King’s College (now Newcastle University).

An experimental artist who moves from almost photographic to semi-abstract and prefers to paint local industrial harbour and shipping scenes, with the occasional sea and landscape. He has exhibited in over 50 galleries in the UK and USA with worldwide sales, working in oil, acrylic and ink wash with a range of limited edition giclee prints.
