Dr. Rob Burton: Artist
Rob has lived all of his life (apart from minor excursions around the world) in the South West of England.
His main influences are the shapes and colours that the land and sea scapes of Devon and Cornwall offer.
The blues and greens of the ocean, the changing skys, the great slashes of green and purple that are the moors, the searing yellow of the Rape fields.
It is no surprise that Rob, a self taught artist, is influenced by artists such as Yves Klein, David Hockney, Picasso, Miro, Grayson Perry, Chagall.
Rob is also a fan of Soviet Realism and the poster art of people like Alexander Rodchenko
Local artists such as Robert Lenkiewicz and Beryl Cook are great inspirations too
