Alex Appleby

Biography

Having just graduated in summer 2021 with a BA in Painting from the final year of Wimbledon College of Arts, Alex is a great example of the resurgence of painting in British contemporary art. 

Alex's main influences are derived from popular culture and undoubtedly the artworld which he is firmly a part of. Alex considers he was born to a painter and as such art these influences run deep within his family. To quote Alex, "a broad stroke of art practices excited me. Lately it is work of old masters like Botticelli, Durer and da Vinci, but I also see inspiration from modern painters like Christian Rex van Minnen, Dani Calundy and John Stark".
