Kevin Walsh was born in Casterford in the heart of the former industrial West Riging of Yorkshire and is proud to hail from the town which produced the world-famous sculptor Henry Moore.

Kevin studied illustration at the Wakefield College of Art and developed an early reputation for his aircraft paintings. He became a member of the Guild of Aviation Artists.

In recent years, he has become increasingly known for a much wider variety of subjects, including landscapes, hunting scenes, transport, and city life in bygone days.

Kevin travels many miles to research his paintings and spends countless hours sketching to capture technical and historical detail accurately. Leading publishers in Britain and overseas have commissioned his work for greeting cards, collectors' plates, biscuit tins, jigsaw prints and calendars.

Original oils by Kevin Walsh can be seen at the Headrow Gallery, Leeds, and at the William Sission Gallery in Helmsley, New York.
