Diane Evans: Biography

I trained and worked as a Nurse and Midwife in my twenties before attending The Ruskin School of Fine Art in Oxford as a Mature Student. I then lived in the Solomon Islands where my husband worked as a doctor. Four children didn’t leave a lot of time for painting. However, now that they are all independent, I can indulge my passion for painting. I am a Member of the Association of British Naïve Artists. I am interested in colour and work in oils mostly from my imagination inspired by the art that has gone before.
