Biography

NEW MOODY VIEWS DVD "AUTUMN & SUMMER TREES IN PASTEL" Available now.

Graham Cox was born and grew up in Bath, he left school at 16 to join the Royal Navy where he spent 10 years specialising in telecommunications. Graham's boyhood love of painting was revitalised in 1994 after seeing an episode of "Art Works" with David Bellamy. Graham spent the next few years producing more mud than magic and eventually discovered pastels in 1998. Sorry David! Graham soon found he could produce the stunning evocative MOODY VIEWS he is now becoming known for, please go to the Gallery page to see examples.
Graham is available for demonstrations and workshops, please click on the My Exhibitions or artists info page for all information on forthcoming events.

These DVD's shows close up my methods and techniques as I complete the paintings "All at Sea & Homeward Bound in the first DVD and Farm at Side Howe and Autumn Snow in the Further Techniques DVD.
