Rob Pointon

Rob paints entirely en plein air and has a particular interest in the use of wider angle perspectives and the depiction of movement within his paintings.

 

Born 1982, Rob has been painting since he was a child under the tutelage of his artist Grandmother, then, as an adult, graduated with a First Class Honours degree in Fine Art from Aberystwyth University before going on to study at The Royal Drawing School in London. Having been a full time professional artist since 2006, Rob's skills have developed through his work on locations all around the UK and abroad.

 

Rob has recently been elected a full member of the ROI (the Royal Institute of Oil Painters) & is also a member of MAFA (Manchester Academy of Fine Arts). Between 2016-2019 he is the International Artist in Residence for Manchester Airport, travelling to different direct destinations and bringing back exhibitions of work to be showcased in the terminals.
