Pierre Guillou

I first started painting in Paris as a junior doctor and medical research worker in the 80's. My developing career as a surgeon rather took me away from art for some years but after Professorial appointments in London and Leeds, I eventually became the Dean of a large Medical school at which time I discovered the Yorkshire dales where I now live and paint. Although largely self-taught, I have received some technical instruction from accomplished artists here and abroad and am now striving to achieve my own style. I appreciate that I am far from the finished article but hope to develop much further as a result of living in such beautiful surroundings and I am lucky enough to be able to travel in Europe and the U.S. all of which provides further subjects for my artistic ambition.
