About Garth Bayley
Born in Pietermaritzburg (South Africa); also known as “Sleepy Hollow”. Garth has been drawing and painting for as long he can remember and was often known for this as a youngster. He went on to have a very successful career as an award-winning chef before going back to his first love of painting. Garth has been living and working as a full-time artist in the United Kingdom for the past 9 years, Garth’s work is all about capturing a moment in time. This often means his work is sport or dance related. It is the sense of movement and colour that are more important than the subject itself. Ultimately Garth paints across a range of subjects – “diversity is my strength”. He works in oils, pastels, and pen and ink, and will often throw in a curve ball with something out of the ordinary for the viewer to discover.
