Philip Maltman
About
Born in Irvine Scotland, studied at Hornsey College of Art 1968 and Ravensbourne College of Art to 1972. I had a great teacher in the 1960's up on the West Coast of Scotland as well as the Ayrshire coast itself. We listened to Thelonious Monk and Dave Brubeck and painted from Kandinsky, Klee and Pollock in the art rooms at secondary school. I was hooked on the translation of every aspect of life through the use of paint which, applied with passion, improvisation and freedom, can invoke in the viewer an explosion of recognition.
