Me? I'm a watercolour artist living in Stratford, Ontario, Canada..... I was born and raised in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.... and, yes, that is an old photo of me....
For those who like to read artist's biographies, here is the one I usually hang on my booth wherever I set up my paintings for sale:-
Vyvyan Green was elected as a member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colours in 1996.
Yorkshire-born, he attended Wakefield College of Art in 1963 and 1964. Giving up his studies there, he left and pursued a career in construction, eventually moving to Canada in 1980
It was not until 1987 that he picked up his brushes again. Since that time he has become a full-time artist and has exhibited his works in many one-man and multiple-artist shows and exhibitions.
Working almost exclusively in watercolour , he has developed a unique style, and is noted for his creation of mood and movement. His choices of subject and sources of inspiration are rich and varied; the world around him, memory, music, literature.....
Whether his images are of actual places, or drawn from his imagination and subconscious, they all have one thing in common - his attempt to capture and reveal a world that, as he constantly reminds us, 'really smokes'.
Currently I'm installing some Pages on Facebook to further display art cards and paintings that are available for purchase: www.facebook.com/VyvyanGreenArtCards
Sit tight, stuff will start happening over the coming months.....
