Stuart started painting towns in 1990 in the wake of a successful career in urban renewal. Now his pictures are hanging in every corner of the globe. There are many styles of painting, but few are more recognisable than Stuart's capriccio cityscapes. The many thousands of his prints purchased in recent years is testimony to the popularity of his work. Stuart's paintings are reproduced as large limited edition prints as well as the small sized collectors series.
This site will not only show you the prints he has published but you can also view the latest news; learn something about Stuart's style and development as an artist; and finally how to get a fantastic print of your own.
What are Capriccio cityscapes?
In selecting landmarks, historic buildings, quirky structures, etc. Stuart seeks to get the feeling of his urban subject on paper. His style, referred to as capriccio cityscape (the artist being capricious with the truth) is distantly related to the 18th Century work of Canaletto and Di Guardi, who sometimes resited buildings to benefit their Venetian and other compositions.
