Brian Ballard
RUA. Born in Belfast in 1943 and trained at the Colleges of Art in Belfast and Liverpool. Brian balances his life here with that at his retreat on the Donegal island of Inishfree.
His contemporary approach to painting alternates between figurative treatment of nudes, landscape and expressionistic still life, all of which he practices in equal measure and intensity.
Brian has exhibited widely in the UK and Ireland ever since his pictures were first hung in the Arts Council Gallery in 1967. His work can be found in many collections such as those of The Ulster Museum, National Trust, Waterford Wedgewood PLC and U2.
