Trevor Price (born 1966) specialises in hand-printed drypoints and etchings. He shares his time between a studio close to Tower Bridge in London, and another in the heart of the artist community of St Ives in Cornwall.
He studied at Falmouth and Winchester Schools of Art and at the age of 28 was elected a member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, of which he is currently vice-president. He exhibits widely throughout Europe, with regular solo shows of paintings and original prints.
In 2011 Trevor was the invited Printmaker of the Year at Printfest, northern Britain's annual art fair dedicated to printmaking. His work is held in various collections, including the Victoria and Albert Museum (London), the Ashmolean Museum (Oxford), Guangdong Museum of Art (Guangzhou, China), Yale University (Connecticut, USA), The Office of Public Works (Dublin), and The Bank of England (London).
He has won several national printmaking awards, and on a number of occasions he has been an invited selector for the annual national printmaking exhibition held at the Mall Galleries and Bankside Gallery in London.
Trevor's artworks usually represent the relationship and intimacy between a couple, sometimes romantic, sometimes erotic, and often humorous. Artistic influences include Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Ben Nicholson and Cecil Collins. Nature and particular environments and locations are also a big influence, and his Cornish roots often feature in his work.
