Tony
Whieldon
is the UK's top fishing illustrator as well as a master painter
of the English landscape.
The Tony Whieldon Gallery presents a collection of paintings of
the Devon countryside and the fish that reside therein.
Since boyhood, the love of fishing and the gift of drawing have
gone hand in hand - along with an ever broadening knowledge of the
landscape and the innate ability to paint it as a true artist.
His work is a collection of oils, watercolours, line & wash,
pen & ink and pencil drawings.
The subjects of his collection are predominently fish, a good deal
of landscapes and some architectural, portrait and still life.
Having worked in London in the 60's as an exhibition artist and
in the 70's as a graphic designer and signwriter, he comes from
the old school of rigorous well observed traditional technique.
Since relocating to Crediton, Devon in the 80's, Tony has established
himself as arguably Britains top fishing illustrator, producing
a long running double page strip for Anglers
Mail in the 90's and illustrating several books by other authors.
Tony is the Author / illustrator of the 'Complete Guide to Fishing
Skills' now in a new updated edition.
He contributes illustrated short stories of his own fishing experiences
to Waterlog
Magazine and is producing a new range of books - the first of
which is entitled 'Simply Coarse Fishing' - published by Medlar
Press.
'Tony Whieldon Books' can be found on Amazon.co.uk.
