Guido Salimbeni

About

By way of background, my name is Guido Salimbeni and I have just moved to Oxford from Italy. I am an artist, although I have no formal training. I developed my skills by attending at the home of a well-known Italian artist in Turin (Ettore Fico) after school every afternoon and observing him and learning his techniques. My style has developed largely through individual experimentation with colour, form and object and could be described as both impressionistic and expressionistic. My preferred medium to date has been pastel although I also work in water colour and oil and draw in charcoal. I have also a keen interest in caricature. In terms of exhibiting, I have been awarded two art prizes in national Italian art exhibitions for digital work and pastel. I sell also some work privately.Areas of Expertise
