About the artist

Kent based artist, Anthony Foster, is a versatile mural artist and figure painter. Initially pursuing a career in advertising, Tony spent fifteen years as an art director for Juniper Woolf and Smedley McAlpine, during which time he worked for high profile clients such as Harrods, Abbey National and Boots.

In addition to many private commissions, clients include VIP Ski, Laughland Jones interiors and Elite Pubs.
