Contemporary Artists

CLIVE MADGWICK RBA, UA (1934 - 2005) Born in London in 1934, Clive turned to painting full time in 1972. He lived and worked in Suffolk from where he gathered much of his inspiration but he also traveled widely in search of subject matter, both home and abroad. Equally at home in oil and watercolour, his work was commissioned by a number of leading corporations that have led to one man shows in the US, Australia, Europe and the UK. He was one of the leading artists in the country, following in the tradition of the great English landscape painters. His work is widely published in calendar, card and print form.

ROWLAND HILDER OBE, PRI, RSMA (1905 - 1993) Rowland studied at Goldsmiths where he later became Professor of Paintings. Renowned for his watercolours of the English landscape, particularly his native Kent, his work has attracted an immense following. Having illustrated a number of books, he went on to work with such artists as Piper, Whistler, Nash and Sutherland, culminating with the 'Shell Guide' books, on which he collaborated with his wife Edith. His work and style have influenced many painters and will continue to do so. He will go down in the history of English Landscape Painters, alongside the names of Turner, Constable and Gainsborough.

PETER NEWCOMBE Born in 1943, Peter studied at Northampton School of Art and continues to live and work in Northamptonshire. His work has been well documented on the BBC, in Country Life and the Sunday Telegraph Magazine. His many important commissions include work reproduced for Shell, a limited edition print for The National Trust and stamp designs for the British and Guernsey Post Offices. Peter's studies of landscape and still life both in oil and watercolour are meticulously executed and lovingly portrayed. He is quoted as saying his only ambition is to bring the sunlight indoors.

Michael Richardson Trained at Ipswich School of Art as a sculptor and painter and later spent time studying in Paris. He has had four one man Exhibitions in his home town of Ipswich and since joining the Wapping Group has shown work in the Society of Marine Artists at the Mall and also in Chelsea as a member of Chelsea Art Society .His output both in oils and watercolour has found homes all over the globe, including America. Frequent trips to the continent and Far East have broadened his palette and outlook. His recent work is almost exclusively painted on a small scale "sur le motif" and seldom refined for fear of losing spontaneity. With a successful Marine Industry and sailing career behind him he takes particular interest in anything to do with boats and his knowledge and experience of the way boats are designed, built and behave, gives authority to his work. He is driven by a recurring desire to capture the fleeting light effects which can often transform the most mundane subjects.
