Dennis Syrett was born in 1932 but he did not start painting until he was in his 30's. He enjoyed his first major success at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1970, which propelled him into the limelight, and his work became rapidly sought after. Dennis began to dedicate all of his time to painting and galleries were eager to exhibit and promote his work. He submitted his work to various prestigious society exhibitions and was accepted for many.
As Syrett's oil paintings gained acclaim, he was able to indulge his love of travel and combine this with his passion for painting. With his work in such high demand from galleries, shows in and around London became more and more successful, and Dennis was able to continue his travels and produce more work as a result.
Dennis became a member of several Royal Societies, and has had multiple one man shows receiving wide acclaim. He was elected as President of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters in 2004. He is also a member of the Royal Society of British Artists, the Royal Society of Marine Artists and the London Sketch Club. He continues to dedicate as much of his time as possible to education, with his talks and demonstrations in demand. In 1971 Dennis purchased a fine art retail business which his family still operates to this day. |
