John Dobbs NEAC SWLA

John was born in Windsor in 1961. He grew up in Denham, Buckinghamshire before moving to Harefield, Middlesex, where he now lives. He initially trained as a draughtsman in electrical engineering, before becoming a full time artist. Although mainly self taught, he was awarded the NEAC drawing scholarship in 2012 which has developed his work through the influence of New English Art Club members. 

He has exhibited with The New English Art Club since 2009 and with the Royal Institute of Oil Painters since 2010. His work is in various collections throughout the world. In 2018, John was elected an associate member of the Society of Wildlife Artists.
