Wistful World by Geoffrey Houghton

Wistful World is a representation of Geoffrey Houghton’s latest works related to colorful and outlandish characters… a unique path of time, fashion & technology. A self-taught artist, Geoff enjoys creating watercolor paintings in a vivid and bold way that has been referred to as a sub-genre of Steampunk with his earlier works. You’ll discover his art focuses primarily on eccentric and enchanting damsels that portray a different time, technology and fashion. His current work expresses his desire to display more “edgy” and melancholy emotions with his characters. He has won numerous painting awards, including 1st place for his painting “Lizzie returns to Centre County” at the competitive Monson Arts Council show in Monson, MA. He also was published on the covers of a phonebook & two literature magazines.
