Jeremy Annear

Jeremy Annear: (b. 1949, Exeter, Devon UK) is a British abstract painter. Influenced from childhood holidays in Cornwall by St Ives modernism and artists like Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth, Roger Hilton, he studied at Exeter College of Art in the 1960s. Following a period of teaching art and raising a family, he moved to Cornwall in the mid-1980s to paint full-time. His textured, balanced abstracts are graphic meditations and a response to his physical landscape, not topographically but as a rhetorical journey to reconcile his inner, outer and beyond world. He is widely collected and exhibits internationally.
