Robert Littleford, FRSA, BWSNorthern artist Robert Littleford was born in 1940. His origins are not from those normally associated with great artists, both his parents being poorly paid cotton workers. It was not until Robert Littleford was in his mid-twenties, when glancing one day into a gallery window, that he noticed a painting of the moon over the ocean. It was an inspiration that was immediate and long lasting. From this sprang a passion that was soon to occupy all his spare time and in 1971 he made the decision to become a professional artist. Robert Littleford’s first exhibition was held at Salford Art Gallery and was a resounding success attracting the attention of art critics and national television. Following many more successful exhibitions Robert Littleford was delighted, in 1986 to be made a member of the prestigious British Watercolour Society. His work has also been exhibited at the Royal Society of Artists. Robert Littleford attempts to convey not a deep socially significant or symbolic message, but merely something he has seen and admired. His interest is derived primarily from light and shade, brightness and shadow. Where most paintings need to be viewed in the light to illuminate them, Robert Littleford's paintings illuminate the room in the most miraculous way. He attempts to show the viewer as truthfully as possible, what it was that inspired him to sit down and paint. (VAT not applicable) |
