Geoffrey Chatten

This artist was born in Gorleston-on-Sea, Norfolk in 1938
A keen interest in nature led to his first job with the Forestry Commission. In 1960 he was encouraged to start painting, and has been a professional painter ever since.
He paints landscapes, seascapes and coastal scenes in oil, over the past 30years Chatten has developed and mastered a technique of painting which is completely his own. The intimate quality of his work displays a freedom of personal expression and exploration and his paintings show a great ability to capture the feeling and atmosphere of his subject.
Still living and working in Norfolk he regularly exhibits in East Anglia, nationally and internationally. Chatten was elected to the Royal Society of British Artists in 1994.
