New Artist: David Porteous-Butler at Affordable Art.
David Porteous-Butler at Affordable Art.
David Porteous-Butler was born in North London in 1945 and his
childhood was spent in and around Highgate. He settled in Suffolk in
1978.
David studied in London under the late Sir Kyffin Williams RA
and Anthony Green RA before being offered a place at the Royal College
of Art. David is truly a protégé of Sir Kyffin Williams RA and remained
close to him throughout his life, sharing his fundamental belief that
drawing and draughtsmanship are a vital part of the artist’s craft.
Like his mentor, he has a passion for the vitality of the landscape and
changing light around him. Suffolk provides much inspiration and the
English countryside is a true love, although he has also worked
extensively in Southern Europe including time in France and Italy.
Working with a limited palette, he is always faithful to the truth in
what he sees.
David was one of the artists chosen to paint the
Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Pageant in 2012 and is currently in Australia
working on several commissions including painting the Melbourne Cricket
Ground during this winter’s Ashes series.
David’s latest paintings are now on display and can be purchased directly from the gallery or by telephone

Trofimov at Affordable Art
Trofimov at Affordable Art
Oleg Trofimov, Russia’s most famous and celebrated living artist, was born in 1962 in Krasnoarmeisk, Russia.
His style is “Russian realism” which is a combination of traditional
realism and impressionism. Russian artists that had a major influence on
him were Korovonin, Turjanskiy, Korjev, Stojarov and Ukin. He cites the
western artists Van Gogh and Monet as his true inspiration.
In the
90’s Oleg’s work was purchased by practically all of the major Russian
banks. Important government officials including Presidents Vladimir
Putin, Dmitri Medvedev, Mikhail Gorbachev and the late Boris Yeltsin
hold his work in their private collections.
Many stars of Russian
entertainment including actors, producers and singers are among
collectors of his art. Svetlana Medvedeva, wife of the current Prime
Minister and owner of two prestigious art galleries in Moscow and Bruges
has purchased 16 of Oleg’s paintings over the past few years.
Moscow’s world famous Tretyakov Art Gallery & Museum has recently
purchased several of Oleg’s paintings to archive alongside other Russian
masters of the last three centuries.
The paintings of Oleg Trofimov
are now on display at Affordable Art and can be purchased directly from
the gallery or by telephone.
