Emrys Parry is a Welsh artist, born in 1941, who has spent most of his life in Great Yarmouth. He grew up on the Llŷn Peninsula and taught for over thirty years at Great Yarmouth College of Art and Design and Norwich School of Art and Design. Emrys specialises in drawing and painting, focusing on the culture and landscape of his childhood, while reflecting his interest in Welsh history and the passage of time.

…On a Subsequent visit to his studio in Great Yarmouth, it was manifest that Emrys was not only a fine draughtsman, but also one of Wales’s most gifted iconographic painters. It is perhaps his isolation in exile away from his beloved homeland that gives his narrative pictures their power. BERNARD MITCHELL
