Featured Artists
Edward Hopper
Edward Hopper was born in Nyack, New York. After leaving high school he studied at the New York School of Art. In 1906 he visited Paris and became influenced by the impressionists. In 1910 Hopper returned to New York and in the following years painted some of his most recognisable paintings. In 1923 he married Josephine. Although they lived in New York they spent much of their time and most of their summers in Massachusetts where he painted the architecture and the landscapes in and
around Cape Cod.
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.
Eric Ravilious
Eric Ravilious was an artist, illustrator and designer specialising in watercolour paintings of the British countryside, most famously of Sussex. Ravilious had a special connection to the area, as he grew up there and studied at the Eastbourne School of Art. He went on to study at the Royal College of Art and later became one of the most popular artists of the 1930s.
Samuel John Peploe
Samuel John Peploe was a Scottish Post-Impressionist painter, noted for his still life works. He lived almost all his life in Edinburgh, but he often visited France. He studied briefly at the Académie Julian, and made his home in Paris between 1910 and 1913. During this time in Paris he moved from an Impressionist style to one influenced by Cézanne and the Fauves. He was a member of the group known as the Scottish Colourists along with John Duncan Fergusson, Francis Cadell and Leslie Hunter.
