Kevin Safe was born in Salisbury in 1967, where she studied Art and Design at Salisbury College of Art from 1983-1988 gaining a diploma in Graphic Design. After graduating, he worked for several graphic design companies, where he says he learnt much more about the design industry. Since this work, Safe says that he found himself more drawn to an artistic career, and now paints as much as he can. He cites Bacon, Klee, Klimpt and the Cornish artist Alfred Walis as key influences, and says 'Their distinct and dramatic styles are both simple and bold.'

Safe says he is inspired by our contemporary landscape. He says 'The rich colours and textures inspire me deeply. Using acrylics on board, I incorporate texture, rich colour along with scraping and sanding back to achieve the effect I am always striving to find.'

Safe cites his move back to his hometown as a major influence onto his work. He says 'In 2002 I returned home to Wiltshire after spending almost ten years in Cornwall, living, working and soaking up the Cornish lifestyle and developing my artistic style. It was once I had returned home and back to my roots that my mind began to see the creative possibilities within my paintings. I found myself very deeply inspired by the vast fields, trees, expansive landscapes and architecture throughout Wiltshire and Somerset.'�

Safe says his aim for his art is to 'create timeless, narrative paintings that are not only contemporary but vivid in colour, texture and form. My paintings are influenced by memories as well as distinctive feelings of places familiar and frequently visited. I enjoy the world around me with its intricate textures and forms and hope my paintings capture this in a contemporary way. I hope they are timeless and yet fresh and exciting at the same time.'
