The Fusion of Graphite & Pigment

Clifford Almond is a British artist specializing in the intricate interplay of graphite, coloured pencil, and water-soluble graphite. Drawing upon a distinguished former career as an architect and engineer, Clifford applies rigorous structural discipline, precision, and a definitive clarity of line to architectural, industrial heritage and equine subjects.  This technical foundation seamlessly informs his portfolio.

Utilizing classical drawing techniques, Clifford deconstructs complex forms to capture profound anatomy, structural weight, and movement with exceptional detail. From the textured, weathered surfaces of buildings or decaying Victorian engineering to the powerful musculature of equestrian subjects, his work reflects an absolute mastery of form.

Deeply committed to the preservation of both traditional draughtsmanship and classical drawing, Clifford serves as a Trustee and Committee Member of the Society of Equestrian Artists, actively contributing to the advancement of classical drawing within the contemporary arts community.
