John Yardley was born in 1933. He is a British painter well known for his landscapes, interiors, and street scenes. Yardley’s watercolors capture the essential aspects of each scene with economic brushstrokes that focus on the accuracy of light and color rather than detail. The artist cites Edward Seago and Edward Wesson as major influences on his work. Born on March 11, 1933 in Beverley, United Kingdom, Yardley never received formal art training. In 1986, after working as a banker for most of his life, he devoted himself to a career in art. The artist is a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolor and frequently exhibits at the Royal Watercolor Society and the Jonathan Grant Gallery in Auckland, New Zealand. Yardley travels extensively year round but predominantly lives and works in the United Kingdom.
