Nick Schlee

Born:  1931  Weybridge Surrey


Nick Schlee at 16 won both Gold and Silver under 18's medals from the Royal Drawing Society  and over the next decades studied part -time at The Art Student's League in New York, Central  School, Morley College, Putney School of Art and The Slade in London.

As well as his solo and group shows, he has exhibited at various ILEA exhibitions, The Spirit of London and The Royal Academy.   He now lives in Berkshire England.

" I like to paint subjects that display the drama that goes with strong lighting.  The modern landscape seems devoid of human life but the trees themselves stand like expectant crowds.

To convey the startling impact of a scene I use vigorous brush strokes and strong colour.  My priorities are those first  sensations that made me stop and choose a particular viewpoint"

Nick Schlee's dramatic works of the English Countryside are painted with immense vigour  and intuition.  Capturing in each painting the scale of such vast and complex landscapes with little concern for topographical detail.
