Artist Farroll Earley

C.V Name. Farroll Earley Age.45 Job, psychiatric clinical lead nurse. I was born in 1965 in London, the youngest of four children. I have a twin brother who is 20minutes older than I am. I became interested in art at an early age and was inspired by Tony Hart from vision on. My secondary school was Southfields comprehensive. This is where my love for art came alive, artists that were influential to me at the time were, Francis Bacon, David Hockney and Lucian Freud. I studied C.S.E art but before my exhibition some of my work went missing so I only managed to get a grade 2. The following year I studied ‘o’ level silk screen printing and obtained a grade C. This led me to take a one year ‘A’ level in painting and figure drawing which resulted in a grade B. I did try for Art College but was turned down a number of times because they thought my dyslexia would hold me back. So after school I took a number of jobs, nursing support, bus driving, milkman. During this time art took a back seat. When I was 29 I started to study as a psychiatric nurse, during my nursing career I have been able to call upon my love of art, I helped start the art therapy in the local secure psychiatric services. Now art is a very important part of my life again. At the moment I’m painting at any opportunity and it’s giving me a lot of pleasure, I have sold my first online piece last year and have been told the recipient was over the moon with it. Has you can see from my work I have not got a style of my own and allow the art work to determine what medium to use. I have just returned from Paris and Monet garden which has inspired me to produce some work in an impressionist form. This has taken the form of both pectoral and abstract work. I am using a limit palette and can see how colours are made up, black instead of being a dead colour is made up of all the colours of the palette. I have tried to be free with my brush stroke so have used water colour and acrylics instead of the oil paint which I feel is to dense. The paper I’m using is very tin and delicate which again gives me a sense of danger because the work is delicate and could brake if overwork before fully dry. I do hope the viewer will enjoy the new work that I am going to start showing from mid August.
