About the artist.
Simeon Stafford was born in the North of England in 1956. As a young artist, Simeon was introduced to LS Lowry who encouraged him in his art and even became a family friend.
An acute observer of mostly the joys of everyday life, many of Simeon's paintings feature characters from his family, including Aunt Dot, the little girl who is constantly doing a handstand. Another character, the family Jack Russell, Trixie, who lived until she was 28, is now stuffed and a resident of Simeon's bedroom.
In 1996 Simeon moved to Cornwall and this had a profound effect on his work. Both the marvellous Cornish light and the heady atmosphere of a county famously steeped in artistic traditions combined to lift his work onto a higher plane. Successful exhibitions followed, both in Cornwall and London, and Simeon has now become one of the most sought-after artists working in Britain today.
Simeon Stafford has exhibited widely throughout Britain including at the Royal Academy, London. His work is represented in numerous collections including those of the former prime minister Tony Blair and HM the Queen.
The Stables Gallery is delighted to present his first exhibition in Ireland.
