Education

Huxley was born in Surrey in 1965. He studied at Berkshire College of Art and Design (1985–1986) and Nottingham Trent Polytechnic (1986–1989) and graduated from the latter with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 1989. He studied for a Diploma in Fine Art at the Royal Academy of Arts (1989–1992).

Professional life

Huxley's work is featured by Galerie Olivier Waltman in Paris, the Crane Kalman Gallery in London and Waltman Ortega Fine Art in Miami. Notable works include a 1993 large scale mural commissioned by Bermondsey Council and a mural in the Met Bar in the Metropolitan Hotel, Park Lane London. Huxley has also been commissioned by UBS, Goldman Sachs, Barclays, EMI, the Richard Rogers headquarters for Channel Four Television Corporation and The Colmore Building in Birmingham.

Huxley suffers from the visual impairment conditions nystagmus and photophobia and this has influenced his approach to creating art.

New work by Huxley was showcased at the 2017 London Art Fair by Crane Kalman Gallery.
