CLIVE JEBBETT, born 1951 in North London, attended Colchester School of Art before leaving to define and hone his own distinctive style of painting.
His use of colour and shade both intrigues and provokes, leaving the viewer with a sense of familiarity and intimacy, encouraging a longer look into the fleeting figures and shadows and stimulating a desire to learn more.
Clive’s work is in both private and public collections in the UK, Europe and North America and in 2010 he was listed as one of a select few British artists to appear in the 34th edition of ‘Who’s Who in Art’.
“It is the function of the artist to evoke the experience of surprised recognition; to show the viewer what he knows, but does not know what he knows.” William S. Burroughs
To quote the artist, “I like that!”
