TO DO

Wyn Appleford  [no e-mail address]
... was born and educated in Aberdeen, Scotland. It was not until she was living in Ireland, in 1967, that she became interested in painting. Since then she has travelled and lived in many countries each one helping to broaden her painting experience of the maritime world of fishing boats and harbours.
She has now settled in Devon where the delightful scenery provides her with endless material for producing her paintings. She is hard-pressed to match supply with the demand for her work and already she has paintings owned by collectors throughout the world.
Wyn had no formal training but her association with the Ben Maile Gallery has given impetus to her work which now shows a feeling for colour and has a distinctive style of her own.
