New works by Allen Shufflebotham

Allen Shufflebotham

New works have arrived in the Westport River Gallery by British artist Allen Shufflebotham. He  was recognized as a talented artist when he was a schoolboy. Having left school he went into engineering but always remained focused on art. In 1967 he sustained a sporting injury that sidelined him from his employment. This gave him the time to pursue his interest in painting and from that time on, he has built up a reputation as an accomplished artist winning national prizes. Click for other works.
