‘Although primarily known and feted as a landscape painter, David Inshaw has always painted people too. Sometimes in portraits, but he prefers figure painting, and, more specifically, the female nude. Inshaw likes women, their company and physical presence, and has led a richly layered emotional life in pursuit of them. As he says: ‘Women are a mystery. I’ve been looking for the right one for a long time. I’ve not found her yet.’ But they are integral to his work: he draws inspiration for his art from his feelings about women and his relationships with them. Not so much in a direct autobiographical sense, but in terms of finding in his experiences an energy to be released through his paintings.’
– Andrew Lambirth
David Inshaw: Naked will be accompanied by two fully illustrated catalogues with essays by Andrew Lambirth
