Ben Goymour is one of the country's foremost artists. Best known for his wonderful seascapes, these cityscapes or a new venture for Ben. This original has a fast and dynamic feel to it with the artistic style much looser and quicker onto the canvas than with his seascapes. Hot colour palettes are perfect for the contemporary statement pieces that Ben's Cityscape portfolio definitely are.
After leaving Army life as a British Commando and becoming a carpenter, I first picked up a brush in February 2017 after a hiking trip to the Lake District. I couldn't afford a painting I loved in a local gallery, so decided on my return to paint one for myself. Little did I know that a new career was about to unfold....
I became completely obsessed with painting using every spare moment I could. Getting up at 4am to paint before a full days work on site for my building company, then painting all evening became a regular pattern for me.
After a year of obsessive painting my wife approached some local galleries and the UK's top Art Agency (without me knowing, and for which I will be fever grateful for) and that became the start of my new self-taught career as a professional artist.
