about.
I am a contemporary artist based in the North East of England, with over 20 years of experience in computer graphics and visualisation. Growing up alongside a rapidly developing digital industry shaped my early career, but as my role became more managerial and less creative, I found myself craving the artistic expression I’d never had time to pursue.
In October 2018, I had the opportunity to leave the computer graphics industry, and I embraced it fully. Working in oil reignited my passion for creativity, allowing me to capture the world around me with honesty and atmosphere. Over time, my work has evolved toward a more expressionistic style, encouraging viewers to interpret each scene in their own way.
This artistic journey led me into cityscape and urban painting—beginning with my Newcastle artworks, which continue to inspire me deeply. From there, my focus expanded to the architecture, graffiti, and layered character of urban environments across the UK. London has become a particularly rich source of inspiration, and my long-term goal is to travel widely, discovering new places and stories to paint.
My work has been exhibited at the Edinburgh Art Fair and is featured in galleries across the North East, including the Alnwick Gallery, The Brinkburn Brewery in the Ouseburn, and The Tower Gallery in Seaton Sluice. I am also a member of Twenty Four North East, a Sunderland-based artist collective supporting contemporary creatives in the region. My paintings have additionally been displayed at The Baltic in Gateshead, part of the Tate network.
Thank you for visiting Robert Myers Art. Please feel free to explore my collections and get in touch—I’m always happy to hear from art lovers, collectors, and anyone interested in contemporary urban and cityscape painting.
