Hi – I’m Steve Wyse, railway artist and member of the Guild of Railway Artists.

Originally from London I now live in Ramsgate on the Kent coast. A graphic designer by trade who has created a wealth of print and associated art for companies as diverse as Pepsi, Disney and Sky BSB plus designs over 70 DVD and CD covers for artists both great and small.
In the 1970s I worked as a professional musician, and as any working musician will tell you, there’s more ‘hanging around’ than performing. With so much free-time, I needed something to occupy the empty hours. Painting was the perfect answer, and for 8½ years so it continued until the day when everything changed and I needed to find a proper job.
The early 90s – and I briefly returned to painting, but it was not until 2020 that the paints and brushes would once again see the light of day.
Many of the railway paintings shown on my website are from this period, and there’s more on the way…

Railways have been a significant source of inspiration for me, with numerous examples of my artwork capturing the scale, power, and movement of steam, diesel and electric trains across the rail network.

While accuracy is important, artistic interpretation and creativity also play a significant role. A painting that evokes emotion, nostalgia, or captures the essence of the railway experience can deeply resonate with train enthusiasts and art collectors.

I offer original paintings, railway prints and greetings cards at various prices, making rail-themed artwork accessible to a wide audience. Artwork for both high quality prints suitable for framing and more affordable options such as posters and greetings cards, ensures that enthusiasts with different budgets can enjoy and collect railway art.
