About Hamish Clark – Painting/ Drawing, Jewellery Design, Silversmithing.

Hamish A B Clark uses painting in various styles and media as a form of relaxation and self-expression. He is inspired by nature’s forms and shapes, architecture and landscapes, with an abstract impressionist style of painting. His pictures range from flowers, trees and nudity to cityscapes. He has also created weighty, sculpted, silver, jewellery.

He has exhibited in Goldsmith's Hall, Hillingdon Open Studios, at local exhibitions in and around London, and privately.

Hamish's work aims to have a sense of mystery and ambiguity, atmosphere and emotion, often derived from life experiences, memories and music. From a distance his work appears bold & simple but on closer inspection it becomes apparent that there are far more complexities, a comparison which can be paralleled in life.

Education:

•	Masters in Jewellery Design from London Metropolitan University (Previously London Guildhall).

•	Bachelor’s Degree in Goldsmithing, Silversmithing and Jewellery at the Kent Institute of Art and Design.

Ultimately though, he regards himself a self-taught artist as his art is a journey of self-exploration.
