John Yardley

John Yardley is now regarded as one of Britain's finest contemporary impressionists, he has been the subject of two documentaries on watercolour painting and three books have been written about his work, including The Art of John Yardley, published in 1990.
John Yardley is one of the most renowned artists of his generation, particularly in watercolour. After a career in banking he started painting full time in 1986. Yardley received no formal training and maintains that this has given him the freedom to find his own style. His artistic impulse is to paint what he sees with little embellishment and he has the ability to capture the vitality of any scene. Yardley is a member of the RI (Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour) and exhibits at the Royal Watercolour Society where he won the award for Best Newcomer in 1989.
