Artist Interviews 21 - Jon Elworthy (oil and watercolour artist)

In this interview we spoke with artist Jon Elworthy, about his joint exhibition with his friend William Oxer.

The exhibition is currently on display in the Robert Phillips Gallery at Riverhouse, and will be here from Wednesday 3 August to Sunday 14 August, open daily from 10am to 4pm.

Jon Elworthy is a local portrait and landscape artist, based in East Molesey. Most of his work is commissioned portraits and landscapes, with other paintings and drawings being offered for sale either at exhibitions or online. Recently Jon has been working on the new series of Time Team as the historical illustrator.

Cotswold based artist William Oxer has been painting professionally for over 30 years, undertaking both portrait commissions for private clients and producing artworks shown in art gallery exhibitions. His romantic studies have a world wide following, and feature in many private collections.

This two man show is the first collaboration between the friends.

Jon will be in the gallery most days, and you may catch him working on his latest painting!
