  Tony Snowden’s paintings are linked by what he calls “a sense of the suspended moment”. These small, dark paintings of figures in a romanticised landscape are sombre in mood: they seem to hint at a hidden narrative or what the artist refers to as an ‘evocative ambiguity’. Originated from drawings done in situ and then worked from memory, they record a brief moment in time, a chance meeting or encounter – a glimpse into the everyday that is transformed and absorbed into the painter’s idealised reality.

  Tony lives and works in Beverly, East Yorkshire – a fact that is often referenced in his titles – and has exhibited many times at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition as well as other galleries throughout the country including a solo shows at the Beverly Minster in 2010 and the Feren’s Art Gallery, Hull in 2004.
