Born in 1961, Duncan grew up in the Midlands, where he still spends a substantial part of the year. Despite being so far inside, he managed to develop a passion for the sea, and spent a very significant part of 18 months to sail across the Atlantic and then around the coast of Britain. He now spends part of the year back home in the Midlands, and the rest of the time in Scotland.
Taking its inspiration from the surrounding landscape, and of course the sea, Duncan was particularly fascinated by the effects of natural light in color. Its distinctive palette conveys the vibrant colors still fresh sea and the sky, as they appear in the bright sunlight. That verges on the abstract, his work is characterized by the density of application of richly textured acrylic, which create a sense of spontaneity and energy unstoppable.
From professional spin, Duncan has enjoyed considerable success throughout the UK showed his work in two galleries and private collections
