STORY OF AN ARTIST
Ed Williamson
The son and nephew of professional artists I grew up surrounded by, and involved with art, but when the opportunity arose to fulfil my dream of playing rugby in the English Premiership it was a chance that I knew I could not turn down. After many happy but injury filled years, painting provided an escape when I was unable to play, recovering from various operations. Moving to South West France in 2014 gave me more time to focus on my passion for painting and since then I have exhibited my work around the world. I am constantly evolving as an artist. My style is very contemporary but I love to mix in traditional techniques and subject matter. I happily paint commissions, from portraits to animals, so if you're interested in having something special created you can contact me via this page.
Cheers, Ed.
