Biography:
Guy Gladwell first learnt his trade in Jersey under the artist Sir Francis Barry, quickly establishing himself as an accomplished seascape artist on the island. Gladwell then moved to London and worked with the Nicholas Treadwell Gallery for many years. After parting ways with the gallery, he entered a highly prolific period in London in the 1980s, including earning high-profile portrait commissions including actor Michael Caine and musician Paul Simon. Gladwell exhibited across the U.K. and Europe throughout his career, including various successful entries to the Royal Academy.
