Artwork

 Mick Gooding comes from a family of artists. In the late 80's whilst living in Boston, USA he was inspired to paint by the abundance of art galleries & the many studios. It was in Boston that he studied art. On returning to England he was a finalist in the BBC TV's Art '90 Competition in Manchester. During last 15 years he has exhibited on Londons Bayswater Road & been a regular at the Sunday Arts & Craft Market in Cambridge.He has produced a number of commissions for well known personalities & when possible he gets his paintings signed. In 2007 he was acknowleged in the Northampton Chronicle & Echo for painting an ex-celtic & Northampton town player.

To date much of his work is in watercolour with paintings from jazz, blues, rock, indie, pop & film personalities. Inspiration comes from his love of music & from his youth when he was able to see many legendary figures in concert. This website shows his latest works which are in acrylic paint.
