artist charly wrencher








Coincidence is a funny thing. I'm currently writing a house feature for real living, and one of the paintings in this beautiful home is by artist Charly Wrencher. As it so happens I had seen an invite a little while back for his exhibition at United Galleries and loved his work so got in contact with him. Today I realise that I'm writing about the same person but in different contexts. Anyway, Charly has worked as an artist for 20 years and been a finalist for the prestigious Wynne Prize. He's short on words but big on colour, so enjoy.

What five words best describe you? Inspired, energetic, creative, happy, positive.
What's your proudest achievement? Having four children.
What was the starting point for this exhibition? Looking westward from my studio one year ago.
Who inspires you? Mondrian, Clemente Bacon.
What are you passionate about? Art and life.
What's the best lesson you've learnt? To be patient.
Which person living or dead would you most like to meet? Jimi Hendrix/Leonardo da Vinci.
What are you excited about? Travelling and painting.
