LYNTON PARMAR-HEMSLEY

Lynton-Parmar-Hemsley has been a full time artist for over 30 years. He trained as a commercial illustrator and has worked in Manchester and London as a storyboard artist and illustrator. Throughout that time he continued to produce his own paintings, showing his work at the Wendy Levy Gallery and Collin Jellico Gallery in Manchester.  Apart from the occasional book cover commission he now devotes all his working time to figure and landscape painting. He has, however, also had considerable success as a portrait artist, attracting several high profile commissions including one from the Bush family in the USA to create a portrait of their daughter Barbara. He now lives in the beautiful countryside of North Yorkshire with his even more beautiful wife, Nita.
