In 1988 Robert moved from Yorkshire to London to study The Illustration and Rendering of Architectural Spaces at the University of East London. Returning to painting Robert developed his range of subjects to encompass landscape and cityscapes, along with the people within those cities. Many of Robert’s landscape paintings are painted ‘en plein. In his compositions of people, Robert will depict only one or two people. As with his ‘en plein air' landscape paintings Robert will show a depth in the character and behaviour of the people being observed.
