Renowned British contemporary painter Aldo Balding began his career as an illustrator before relocating to France in pursuit of painting full-time. Balding is represented worldwide in galleries across the UK, USA, France, and South Africa. Balding paints open-scenario moments in everyday life- a couple at a café, someone waiting by a fountain, figures lost in contemplative isolation. The artist believes that body language outweighs words when communicating feeling or intention, and thus takes to the canvas to tell his captivating, open-ended stories.
