I was fortunate to have grown up in an environment that enabled me to persue my creative inclinations from writing on the newly painted walls with Crayola when I was three to tipping a pot of white paint down the stairs when I was five. During my mid-teens my father, a potter and sculptor – see my links, encouraged me to finish my sketchbook drawings as larger works using oil paint on panels.
I have been exhibiting my work since 1999 being involved in solo shows and group shows. My last solo show being held here :
My work has also been featured in television shows for S4C, The Pop Factory and HTV.
2009 will be given to developing a series of works involving themes of local folklore, regeneration and the apocalypse all set within the location of a now-not-so-small welsh town, the landmarks, the brethren, y cwrw, the mountains, the hills and the weekends of chaos and abandon.

Hi Iolo,
I am a student in St. Clare’s Senior School in Porthcawl and I am really interested in your amazing artwork. I would like to use yor work as inspiration for my GCSE coursework, I am also a musician myself, I play the guitar and drums. I am basing my final piece of art work on the theme of music. Please could you tell me where you got your inspiration from for your own art work and what media do you paint in? who are the people in the paintings? and how long does you paintings take to design and make.
Yours faithfully
Rhod
