Brian Davies was born in Isleworth, Middlesex. He followed a banking career in London and Sydney, Australia, where his painting began. After several years, he abandoned finance for fine art returning to Europe and 'la vie de boheme', spending time in France and Holland where he became fascinated by the 17th century Dutch Masters, developing an enduring interest in still-life and a talent that has matured over the years.
His still-life studies are painted with infinite variety and posses a timeless appeal, earning him a distinguished reputation. He lives in London and the Languedoc hills in Southern France.
Brian Davies has exhibited at 8 of Summer Exhibitions at The Royal Academy and the Paris Salon, 1974, holding many exhibitions in London, the provinces and overseas.
His work is represented in corporate and private collections in Great Britain, European the United States.
