Anthony Osler was born in Ipswich in 1938 and has taken a passionate interest in all things maritime for most of his life. He started watercolour painting in his late twenties after having some pen and ink work accepted for publication in a yachting magazine, and quickly achieved success with a very distinctive style and a compulsion to improve.

He has had one-man shows in Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Maldon, and Paris but nowadays tends to concentrate on mixed exhibitions and maintaining stock at several galleries including

Sea Pictures Gallery, Clare, Suffolk
The Peter Hedley Gallery, Wareham, Dorset;
Francis Iles, Rochester, Kent;
The Southwold Gallery and Snape Maltings, Suffolk.
 

Hurrying Home
Watercolour - 8" x 12"

He also works in gouache, and occasionally oils, as well as producing a range of limited edition prints.

He is the current Chairman of the East Anglian Group of Marine Artists.
