Greetings to all.
I am Denis Lyons, from Birch Grove St Andrew, in a little village called Gaupo meaning BEAUTIFUL/HANDSOME!!
I have been drawing from an early age of seven; my first ever painting was done with a piece of fabric wrapped around a stick to create a paintbrush, which I used to design my name on the wall.
While only receiving three years of formal art training at secondary school level, I was determined to develop my art skills, as a result I looked at YouTube videos, and read books, which had a positive impact on me, hence allowing me to capture the 1st place position in the TA Marryshow Community College day Art competition 2011. I drew an astonishing eye capturing Portrait of Mr. Theophilus Albert Marryshow which I was highly praised for.
I enjoy working with acrylic paint and pencil, to create realistic pieces, but am also willing and open to work with new mediums. I am only known for my artistic side, but I am also versatile in technical skill cooking Vegan/ Ital meals, barbering and is a handy-man around the house.
For any inquiries about purchase or prints, I can be reached at denislyons98@gmail.com,
