Jim Farrant was born in 1972. He attended Art College but left after one
term and considers himself to be self-taught. He travelled extensively
throughout Australia, America and India before returning to settle in
London and began to consider painting as a full-time career. Jim's early
paintings were almost entirely abstract - his influences being the work
of Diebenkorn and de Kooning. He had his first one man show in London
in 2003 and his second in Devon in 2005.
That show concentrated on his
current realistic style and couldn't have been more in contrast to his
early abstract work. "I WANT MY PAINTINGS TO BE REALISTIC BUT WITH AN
ENERGY AND FREEDOM OF EXECUTION" Jim now lives in Somerset and produces
work for 2 prestigious galleries, his work is in collections throughout
the world.
