Welcome to Conwy Art

Welcome! Croeso! I'm Bill Kneale and I'm a Conwy-based artist. Take a tour around North Wales and beyond in these online galleries showcasing my work.

About my art: I paint in an impressionistic way, capturing visually interesting scenes. I sketch to start the development process, and my acrylic paintings evolve with questioning and changes. The under painting adds depth and shows the journey. On-site paintings are quickly produced using acrylic, a fast-drying medium.

About me: After qualifying in art and design I was a product designer by day and taught painting at night class. I then moved into education pioneering integrated art and design. This was followed by teaching wildlife for the RSPB.

About this website: This website is intended to show the range of my work. If you are interested in buying a painting please get in touch and take a look at the sales page.
