Jim Tattersall
The Artist
A Manchester
man, Jim Tattersall was brought up in Chorlton and attended
Saint Clements School and Manchester Regional Collage of Art.
He
started painting around 2002 upon retirement and has developed
a fascination for the effects of light and reflections on water,
concentrating on familiar scenes in and around Manchester. He
uses oil and acrylic paints, experimenting with colour and oil
media to achieve bold effects and depth, portraying the activities
of ordinary people. His city views are more often than not depicted
'after the rain', illustrating rich reflections dancing on Manchester
puddles - his favourite theme.
If you are, or know of any local artists (painters, photographers,
