cornish artist steve slimm reveals The Transcendence of the ancient land of cornwall, uk - in glorious oil paint, watercolor, et cetera
What Gives Certain Places The Feel of Timeless Transcendence?
If you're familiar with this ancient land of Cornwall, UK., you'll be aware that it is steeped not only in history, but also in pre-history. Neolithic stone circles abound, alongside prehistoric settlements and burial chambers, etc. There is a feeling of long forgotten culture, real people and their activity. And all this next to far more recent history -that of the world-famous Cornish tin mining phenomenon - a mere couple hundred years old in its industrialized form.
This Cornish ethos has gone out to influence mining the world over - including diamonds in S. Africa and gold in America. Thus the transcendent quality of the land and its people has become integrated into even the great American nation.
the artist - steve slimm
The name Steve Slimm
has become synonymous with a deep connection to the natural environment, coupled with a profound sense of mystery. From earliest glimmers of passion during the late 70s, he has pursued his vision undauntedly. Despite severe personal setbacks, his artistry has remained foremost, as has his indomitable quest toward expressing the inexpressible in paint. After four decades dedicated to the pursuit of such excellence, his work now breathes with a sublime sense of transcendence. This website is dedicated to connecting him with art-lovers who wish to go beyond all concepts and enter that 'unspeakable mystery' with him.
What clients are saying . . .
"Hello and Welcome -
I have been expressing the feel of this land in paint for four decades. There is magic in these hills and the resplendent granite coast. I would love to share it with you, in whatever way suits you best. Don't hesitate to tell me your needs.
I hope you enjoy your visit - and return regularly. The website is updated weekly and I try to keep it interesting and informative; as well as inspirational. A team of dedicated people work in co-operation with me in various ways. But the original paintings and watercolours are all by me. Some might date back decades.
These days I'm really enjoying my Joint Venture Projects. (More about them below.) To keep up to date with news, etc, please sign up for the Membership Club newsletter below. Thank you for visiting."

To complement the website I send out occasional mailings.
For example, private views of new work not shown here, before it reaches galleries. Or paintings I've discovered in the Aladdin's cave studio, that have been hiding away! Plus offline personal deals on some of the original pieces shown here. (More business is conducted personally like this, than through the website itself.)
Rest assured I never share your email address.
Joint Venture Projects
"As a way of facilitating a deeper connection with my clients, I've recently begun engaging with new places that others have asked me to visit. Localities in which they personally experience the transcendence of timelessness. It's been such a privileged journey for me to connect with new inspiration in this way. And to connect with the people for whom I do this work. It's given me a whole new sense of purpose and fulfilment as an artist.
The painting illustrated here is an example of such a project. It's one of four I painted - and my clients were totally delighted."
