Iestyn Owen
I was brought up in Groeslon in Gwynedd, North Wales attending Ysgol Dyffryn Nantlle high school where I studied for my GCSE’s (1995 - 2000) and A-Levels (2000 - 2002).
After completing my Art Foundation Course at Coleg Menai, Bangor, (2002 - 2003) I went onto study for my degree at Leeds Metropolitan University garduating in 2006 despite being involved in a serious bike accident during my final year.
Currently I am a practicing artist living in Groeslon.
My work and style has been developing over the last 7 years - my influences to begin with were Peter Prendergast and Frank Auerbach (expressionists) and then Jackson Pollock and Fabian Marcaccio (abstract expressionists) but I have always had an interest in surrealism and have been influenced a lot by Dali.
