Alex Beadle is an artist and educator from the Isle of Man currently living in Vancouver. After graduating with a degree in animation from Falmouth Arts, he worked in character design, animation and film production for a number of years.

After discovering oil painting, Alex honed his skills with a combination of self-study and taking courses with established artists who share a similar vision. He is passionate about developing his unique visual style and body of work with an emphasis on portraits and expressive figurative works.

Heavily influenced by the work of Lucien Freud and Andrew Salgado, Alex’s practice aims to make painting a sensory experience which captures the subject's character, atmosphere and form.
