Owen Normand is a contemporary figurative painter who studied at Edinburgh College of Art.

His work is held in private collections in the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, The Netherlands, USA, Canada, Mexico, Singapore, Australia and Hong Kong.
My work explores awareness of impermanence and acceptance of change. The characters in my paintings are always caught in moments of self reflection or when they are teetering on the threshold of something new. I am interested in creating scenes that express some of the anxieties and bitter-sweet feelings of my generation.
