Bob Elcock
Artist in Wolverhampton, West Midlands
Although I began drawing and painting as a young man, it was not until I took very early retirement that I was able to concentrate on painting full time. Through the years I have completed 100's of commissions and I still get a terrific kick from painting a picture that is both accurate and pleasing. At my one day animal workshops, I encourage everyone to bring their own picture of an animal they wish to paint to get a more personal hands-on style tuition instead of a do what I do, paint by numbers approach.
