Kevin Southgate is a contemporary artist and works from his studio in Suffolk. Kevin has always had a passion for the landscape, which has evolved from the love of the outdoors and particularly the fells of the Lake District.

Kevin’s inspiration has been drawn from various artists, originally enjoying collage and abstract, where early influences were the Cumbrian artist Russell Mills, who in turn was influenced by the German artist Kurt Schwitters.

Now that Kevin has settled into landscape observation, his current inspiration comes from various artists such as J.M.W Turner, Claude Monet, Joan Eardley, the Scottish artist and more recently, Kurt Jackson.

“I hope my work will be something that the viewer will continually return to and each time find something new that was not obvious before, an incomplete story, if you like”.
