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.

Iain Vellacott Iain was born in England on 27th February 1960, a birthday that he shares with his favourite artist, Joaquin Sorolla. Educated at Winchester College he exhibited at school exhibitions and at Winchester Fine Art Gallery. Iain qualified as a Chartered Surveyor and set up a consultancy practice with large UK property companies and the Duke of Westminster's Grosvenor Estate as his clients. Iain now lives in the south-west of France which has allowed him to study, practice and concentrate on his painting and drawing which he always kept up. He has benefited considerably from the help and advice of a number of leading artists, particularly Aldo Balding. Iain now spends the vast majority of his time painting using oil paint to capture the light and atmosphere of local French life as well as scenes from England. He exhibits in a number of galleries in France in Toulouse and Carcassonne, held one-man exhibition in the UK and has won two prizes at Soreze Midi-Pyrenees International Art Salon in 2007.
