Lewis Evans

Art marketing
As an established, professional artist since 1993, Lewis Evans has been producing and selling works of art while also promoting the art community using his marketing communication skills. Past promotional projects include:

  • development of a strategy and marketing materials for Hertfordshire Open Studios in the UK
  • development and promotion of Arts on the Costa - a scheme that enabled the arts community to sell direct to a large incoming customer base in the Costa del Sol in Spain
  • development and facilitation of creativity courses Finding the real artist in you for non-artists to find their unique creative talents

Marketing communications
Lewis originally followed a career in engineering before turning to graphic design and photography in his twenties. Following his graduation, he worked as a graphic designer at the BBC. He then spent some time in New Zealand, before returning to England to set up a marketing communications consultancy near London, where he carried out design and corporate identity projects for companies in a wide variety of industries. He also consulted on environmental issues such as transport in the UK.

Photography
Throughout the 1980's he practised professional photography. His extensive portfolio contains architectural, industrial and fashion work. In the late 1980's, he designed and photographed many calendars using glamorous models in exotic locations, as well as fashion photography which found its way into several top magazines including Vogue.

Inventions
Lewis has several inventions under his belt. Recently, he invented and commercialized a new way to trade currencies. LEFT Brain Trading uses a combination of powerful mindset techniques developed by his wife, Olga Sheean and a revolutionary method of setting up trading charts that is based on ancient knowledge and the Fibonacci ratios. He co-authored a book on the subject and achieved worldwide recognition and sales within the first year through web-based marketing, seminars and courses.

He has also developed: a planetary and humanitarian Internet-based project designed to deliver commercial benefit through the promotion of a philanthropic lifestyle, and to provide benefits to mankind and the environment; an insurance product that provided benefits to environmental charities; and designed a microwave-shielding device designed to protect mobile phone users from potentially harmful radiation produced by mobile phones.

The United Nations and HIV/AIDS
He spent two years in Geneva working for the International Labour Organization (part of the United Nations), as a communications specialist for ILO/AIDS, the part of the ILO that deals with HIV/AIDS in the world of work.


Art
He has produced art consistently through all of these experiences which have proved invaluable in developing his vision and approach. In the early 1990's he spent many weekends with a community of artists at the home of the film director, Stanley Kubrick, who lived near him in the UK and whose wife, Christiane, is an accomplished artist in her own right. Here, he experimented with new methods and media, before setting up his own studio.

Over the years he has exhibited in New York , Marbella , Geneva , Vancouver and the UK . Selected work is also available through Vancouver Art Gallery and other locations in Vancouver.

He now lives and works in Vancouver.
