Henry McAlpine (b.1998) is a London-based artist originally from Northumberland. Having been surrounded by the rural landscape during his upbringing, he has always been fascinated by the richness of the natural world and the energy it brings. His paintings depict various animals and landscapes that fluctuate between reality and distortion, using a series of stylised forms to break down different colours. McAlpine studied Fine Art at the University of Leeds, where he received a First Class Honours Degree in 2020, learning traditional drawing and painting techniques shortly after. Since then, he has found a variety of inspirational subjects all held together by the same fragmented style. His inspiration stems from British landscapes, to wildlife found in places like Africa and Central America. Since his education, Henry has accepted requests for numerous commissions, gained experience assisting mural painters on large scale projects in Central London, appeared on the 9th season of Landscape Artist of the Year on Sky Arts and appeared as a finalist in the DSWF Wildlife Artist of the Year competition at Mall Galleries.
