Tony Bevan studied at Bradford School of Art (1968-71), Goldsmiths’ College (1971 -1976) and the Slade School of Fine Art (1974 – 76).
His work is characterised by the use of expressive lines and imbued with psychological intensity. He is well known for his figurative work, particularly depictions of the human head, but he has also addressed architectural subjects.
