Welcome to Simon Wellington Artist
Simon Wellington is an artist who works in a variety of mediums. He uses watercolour, oils, acrylics right through to high pigment gloss enamels on Pub Signs painted for fun.
Simon produces a series of print runs of paintings that are affordable to all. The Charity Phone Box prices at the moment are £1.50 for cards. £10 for A4 prints and £20 for A3 prints. All of them are professionally printed and colour matched. The illustrated book, with humorous stories of a child growing up in Midsomer Norton is reduced at the moment from £10 to £5. All the prints and cards are sold at a fraction of the prices charged at Wells Cathedral and other exhibitions.
One man shows in places like Wells Cathedral and the RUH Gallery Bath; as well as invitational private showings and charity events has helped him get recognised to the wider public. It is the cards and prints from these one man shows that were initially used to stock the phone box.
After helping large charities, he would now prefer to aid local charities, who do not hire expensive staff and CEOs.

Simon trained as a signwriter whilst he played full time football. He then went on to be a teacher and left after 5 years. Signwriting, enabled him to start a successful signs and designs business after he left his teaching job in Southampton. He is now retired and paints for pleasure and to help local charity.
