Frank Halliday was born in Yorkshire more years ago than
he will admit to, and has painted all his life. After
following a successful business career which took him
all over the UK, he finally settled in Norfolk, where
he has been able to focus on his passion for painting.
His love and enthusiasm for painting have drawn him into
lecturing, demonstrating and running workshops for those
who want to paint for themselves.
Frank has had one man exhibitions in Yorkshire, Derbyshire
and Norfolk, showing works in oils, pastel and watercolour.
His paintings have sold successfully to collections in
Europe, America, Australia and throughout the UK.
Three of Frank's watercolours entitled "Norfolk Skies"
have been published as limited edition prints (see the
Catalogue). He has written two easy to read books on watercolour
painting, produced six videos on how to paint, appeared
on television, and even been featured in ‘Painting
on the Radio’ for the BBC!
When he is not running Painting Breaks at his B&B
in Felthorpe, near Norwich, Frank works professionally
for Winsor & Newton as a demonstrator, tutors workshops
for Arts & Leisure Painter magazine, and demonstrates
at shows around the country. He is also in great demand
on the cruise ship circuit, where his workshops are always
over-subscribed.
Frank’s dry Yorkshire sense of humour makes every
class or course that he runs a perfect delight, and
you will have fun learning. Why not look at Frank’s
Courses and Events page to see when you could enjoy
a relaxing break in 2006?
If you don’t paint, but you love watercolours,
have a look at Frank’s Gallery, where you can
order originals which will add colour and beauty to
your home.
