WELCOME TO MY GALLERY, SHOWING SAMPLES OF MY PAINTINGS OVER THE LAST 25 YEARS

                      

My name is David Godbolt and I live in Hockley, Essex, UK.   I started in oils as a hobby and found it difficult to know what subjects to paint, but one day a friend asked me to copy a particular railway scene that he liked but with a different train in it.  I found it better to paint what people wanted in the first place so once I changed over to pastel, I started doing portraits for work friends and every job brought more work, which was mainly animal and children portraits.

Later I also started experimenting with ink illustrations for my family and friends.   After a break I took up watercolour, and now I am retired I paint mainly in mixed media, being in my case any combination of ink, coloured pencils, or watercolour, which also has the advantage of being easier to send through the post.  

For all inquiries please email me at:   david.godbolt@googlemail.com   

Please note that I only work from photographs or digital photographs.   Thank you for calling.
