Tony Heald is a professional English painter. He is a master of movement.
Many of his paintings evolve from a combination of drawings of a chosen subject transferred to canvas. He views his subjects from many angles and places these angles together to make a fascinating painting with movement, originality and a great sense of colour.
His images create a central focus but his backgrounds are an essential setting to his focal image. The detail of his paintings is extraordinary and his sense of light exceptional.
His inspirations come from subjects that have movement in themselves - the circus, dance, animals and even when painting a static image such as a portrait he manages to define several angles of his subject to create a contemporary 'moving' painting.
Tony Heald also works in pencil and pen and ink and creates pictures with movement and texture yet superb accuracy.
Look at these paintings and feel the movement of each one.
Tony Heald is exhibiting in Miami, New York and London in 1999 and 2000
