Leigh Norgrove

I have had a long and varied career in Education, teaching youngsters between the ages of 3 and 7 at a primary school where Art was really valued and creativity formed an important and integral part of each day. So throughout my teaching career I was able to develop my own creative ideas.

I am currently preoccupied with capturing light and dark together with a sense of warmth or chill, employing a variety of mark making techniques. I use photos from my journeys around the UK and beyond, in particular Kent and France as inspiration, Drawn to vibrant and complementary colours, I work mainly in acrylics.
