Why 'evoques' ?

Derived from French verb, évoquer : to evoke, to recall memories from the past, as do many of the photos shown (and my love of the language).
The website was born in early June 2020.

Its raison d'être ...

... to promote art sales e.g. ART (acrylics)

I first got interested in art many decades ago when we were snowed-in at home. I bought a set of coloured pencils and produced an acceptable picture of a kingfisher and I was encouraged to continue. Over time, I experimented with watercolour and charcoals before settling on acrylic painting which has become my favourite medium.
Three examples of my work are shown on the left.

I attended a workshop where palette knives were used and I really enjoyed the freedom that these allowed. Nowadays I often use a knife and combine it with brushwork. There are no rules - it's whatever gives the desired effect.

I enjoy the thrill of participating in local exhibitions, often with pleasing results.

Please use the main menus to view artwork that can be purchased. (PayPal is available).

... and present a wide variety of wildlife photos e.g. BIRDS

Over the years I have taken a large number of wildlife photos, nearly all with various Sony bridge cameras, and they live in a database on my Mac. However, they don't see the light of day apart from casual viewing by visitors or maybe at a presentation. On a web-site they are readily available to anyone interested (and it also gives me more backup).

Although many photos have been annotated there is no intention that the site serves as a field-guide.
Unless otherwise stated all wildlife photos have been taken by Neil Galton ©. They could have been taken in other European countries, apart from the UK.

... and to offer some amusement

There is a FUN section that has a mixture of topics that may raise a smile
