Featured Artists
Cedric Morris
Cedric Morris was a British artist, art teacher and plantsman. He was born in Swansea in South Wales, but worked mainly in East Anglia. Cedric grew up in Sketty, South Wales. On leaving school he spent his younger years intermittently abroad, regularly travelling across Europe and North Africa, whilst renting studios in
Cornwall, Paris and London. In the 1930s, Cedric and his partner, the artist Arthur Lett-Haines made Suffolk their permanent base, moving to Pound Farm in Higham where his garden became much admired. Morris developed a post-Impressionist style for portraits, landscapes and highly decorative style for still-life.
Linda Richardson
Linda Richardson is an Essex born artist-printmaker who has now made her home on the beautiful Shetland Islands. After a 2 year foundation course, Linda studied printmaking at the Colchester School of Art, 1976-1979. She still has close ties with East Anglia but now finds inspiration from the wildlife and varied landscape that Shetland provides. Her printmaking encompasses both linocuts and etching. As a painter she works in acrylic, watercolour or mixed media.
Bernard Cheese
Bernard Cheese studied at Beckenham School of Art and, following four years in the army, studied in London at the Royal College of Art from 1947, where his teachers included Edward Bawden. He taught printmaking at St Martin’s School of Art from 1950 to 1968, then at Goldsmiths College from 1970 to 1978, and Central School of Art and Design (1980–89). He designed posters for London Transport. He also did commissions for Guinness and the BBC. In the 1950s he moved to the artists’ community of Great Bardfield in Essex. His works are in the collections of the Tate, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Royal Collection, the British Government Art Collection, the New York Museum of Modern Art, and the New York Public Library.
Tirzah Ravilious
Tirzah was born in Gillingham, Kent. After finishing school she attended the Eastbourne School of Art from 1925-1928. It was here that she met Eric Ravilious. In 1928 she moved to London and studied at the Central School of Art. Tirzah was a skilled wood engraver; She was commissioned to produce woodcuts for Kynoch Press and the BBC. Tirzah and Eric married in 1930. In 1931 they left London and moved to rural Essex where they started a family. She gave up her art to raise their children and to support Eric with his career. Thankfully Tirzah’s work is now starting to get the recognition it deserves.
