Alan Halliday (b.1952) is an internationally established British artist. (See, The Dictionary of British Artists since 1945).
Art critic John Russell Taylor writing in The Times said, “Halliday paints what obsesses him. His style is boldly calligraphic. Even his large-scale oil paintings depend largely on the definition of effective line while his smaller works in ink, gouache and pastel are built on a structure of amazingly fluid, spontaneous strokes of the pen; but they are in fact more than that. While the line may define the form, it is the colour which gives it form and life.”
Halliday has been a successful professional artist for 40 years, holding more than 100 exhibitions in the USA, Europe, India and the Middle East. His paintings are in the collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum; the Theatre Museum, The Museum of London as well as Oxford University colleges and the Folger Shakespeare Library, Washington, USA. His paintings are also acquired by private collectors worldwide.
