Welsh Artist Gwynfor Roberts is a landscape painter from Ystrad Mynach,South Wales. His passion is producing 'Paintings of Wales', concentrating on Welsh landscapes in oil and watercolour.
Being able to draw from an early age enabled me to enjoy a career as a design draughtsman and during my working years, painting local subjects became the theme of my paintings which I continue with
today. More recently, I have painted other parts of Wales and all are featured on my site.
It is pleasing to know that my website and all its contents has been archived by the National library of Wales,
Aberystwyth part of the UK Web Archive for its Heritage content. The site is continually updated and again its nice to
know that people from far away have commented on details of my paintings with, " that's the farm where our ancestors
lived before going to America." And that makes it all worthwhile.
You will see my work follows a Traditional style of painting.
I don't take the view of designing a composition - moving and removing parts to please the eye, I simply record what is there and produce an historical record of the subject.
Many of my paintings are now of an historical nature and as time has moved on, it has become difficult to find local history to paint.
Things are changing at a fast rate - just like our steam trains and coal mines, both of which I just missed!
All the paintings on this site have come from visiting each of the destinations.
Here are some YouTube videos showing a few of the paintings you'll find on my site.
