Why Did You Become An Artist
 
Your Personal Biography Jim Haldane was born in Hove, UK, in 1945 and studied Illustration at Brighton College of Art and then at the Royal College of Art, where he was awarded an M.A. with distinction in 1968, one of only two that year and where he was described by the then Head of the School as ‘one of the few exceptional students I have ever taught’ (The Times, January 21 1971), also winning the prestigious American Scholarship.

After several successful years as an illustrator in the 1970s, working for the likes of the Sunday Times, the Observer and such multinationals as Shell Oil (for whom he has illustrated their annual report), Jim decided that he felt too constricted by commercially lead work and resolved to concentrate on fine art.

For the past twenty-five years Jim’s dedication to fine art has been unwavering and he has produced an enormous body of work which continues to break new ground in such diverse areas as acrylics and printmaking, where he has perfected a unique coloration technique.

Jim’s work sells all over the world yet at heart he is a local artist and finds inspiration in Brighton’s great and diverse architecture as well as the changing moods of the sea.
