About the Artist

“Although I have worked in the music & entertainment industry for over 35 years my passion for art came way before this. On the seafront of my hometown, Great Yarmouth, the local portrait artists became lifelong friends and I would spend endless days watching, learning and turning up at their studios while they worked on amazing, bigger, more personal works. For me, wealth and fame has never really been high on my list of important things. Wealth to me is having the love and support of my amazing family & friends in my artistic endeavours. I'm a dreamer, a musician, an artist. I look at every opportunity as a chance to learn, create and practice what skills I have to reach my goals. Then I set new ones.” Davie Howes

Artist Demonstration

Davie will be at the gallery painting some new watercolours throughout the day and loves talking about his work. He has traveled all over the globe with his art career and has painted scenes from Antarctica to the Norfolk Broads! We will have a large selection of his original paintings available. These will also be added to the website shortly.

“My career has taken me around the globe many times. All seven continents (including being one of only a few people to sketch the penguins on land in Antarctica. Organised by an amazing expedition team). I'm very fortunate to have worked with and become friends with so many amazing people on this planet from literally everywhere and every walk of life.”
