Phillip Alder

For 50 years Phil Alder has lived in a beautiful valley in Wales, and surrounded by a gorgeous garden. And it is the garden which inspires his impressionistic paintings with their explorations of light, colours, the changing seasons & the wonders of nature. He is a superb colourist and his oil paintings are characterised by a dense pattern of complex shapes and brushstrokes along with the most subtle touches of colour. He is also an accomplished and acute watercolourist.

Phil has enjoyed a long career in arts and heritage and has exhibited widely and was recently awarded a retrospective (résumé) exhibition by Carmarthenshire Museums. His work is represented in several private, public and corporate collections.

Along with current work we are able to offer some earlier paintings when his series were concentrating more on form and colour.
