Entertaining Mr Lear

Charles Newington

Painter, Printmaker, Draughtsman, Illustrator, Teacher.

The style and subject matter of the images I create are as diverse as the mediums and techniques I use.

My most well known work is the White Horse of Folkestone. A giant, landmark Hill Figure on the Etchinghill escarpment above the Channel Tunnel entrance (www.whitehorsefolkestone.co.uk), created to mark the new millennium.
