Malcolm Teasdale was born in Newcastle in 1944. His early career years were spent as a teacher before becoming a full time artist.

Malcolm Teasdale roots are firmly planted in the North East of England an area whose character and landscape has been defined by its British industrial history. His forefathers were lead miners working the seams on bleak Alston Moor, and successive generations coal mined in Tynedale and close to Newcastle. Malcolm Teasdale was born in the district of Elswick. He has lived and worked for much of his life near to the city of Newcastle. It is an area whose character and landscape has been much defined by its industrial history. Much of Malcolm's art work has arisen from the industrial history of the North East.

Malcolm Teasdale's love of the North East and his genuine admiration for the scenes and characters of the area is evident in the strong sense of community and camaraderie that defines his highly evocative British art work. It is the honesty of Teasdale's approach that differentiates his paintings from many of his contemporaries. Malcolm has an extraordinary ability to convey the reality of everyday life and the atmosphere of each scene, rather than simply to recreate the literal image.

Many of Malcolm Teasdale paintings use a minimum colour palette evoking strong memories of the British social and industrial past. These times were often grim and Malcolm’s paintings are an honest record of the time, but he manages to bring a wonderful charm to the era, and the characters portrayed in his art works.
