Liam Spencer he was was born in Burnley in 1964,  He studied at Burnley college and He studied Fine Art at Manchester Polytechnic. hes influenced by many artists for different reasons, a fue of the artists that influence him Frank Auerbach, Ivon Hitchens, Gwen John, Winifred Nicholson, Monet, Marquet, Matisse, Bonnard, Van Gogh, Cézanne, Bomberg. his subject matter is manchester and region, its a fascinating subject for artistic representation, in his opinion much more interesting than traditional-style 'chocolate box' subjects. He uses very realistic colors and fine brush marks and he puts everything in proportion. he brings out a warm kinda suttle mood from his paintings i think because hes used warm colors it has set the atmosphere as calm and kinda peaceful. its very realistic work nothing seems abstract about you can notice the brush marks. he came to public attention in 2000, with an exhibition “Urban Panoramas” at the newly opened Lowry arts centre in Salford.
