ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES - ROY GOODMAN

He has drawn and painted all his life but apart from studying art at school he is entirely self-taught. When the time came to decide on a life career the flipped coin landed science-side up, so Roy is a professional scientist but with a passion for painting.

He is influenced by a succession of European artists from the Renaissance masters to Rothko, but particularly by the Fauves. This shows predominantly in his use of colour.

His paintings are exhibited mainly in Cornwall from which he draws his inspiration.
