Artist in Pastel about whom we knew little until we were contacted by Duncan Bosher, who told us that Donald was
"Born in Leicester, attended Leicester Art College as a teenager. Apprenticed as a printer and bookbinder. Prolific artist in watercolours, oils, charcoal, pastels and the then-new acrylic paints. Painted landscapes throughout Leicestershire and his beloved Norfolk coastline with its clouds, salt flats and rotund whelk-boats. Self-trained, he pursued painting seriously after his 5-year WWII stint in the RAF. Member of Leicester Society of Artists and Leicester Sketch Club for many years. Longtime member of Royal Institute of Painters In Watercolours and London Pastel Society. Two pieces accepted in the Royal Academy 1968(?). Influenced by Constable, Edward Seago, Walter Sickert, and the English school of watercolorists and landscape artists. Wrote for the Artist magazine during 1960’s and 70’s. Worked as an mental health Occupational Therapist for many years, during which he utilized his teaching skills in a series of art therapy classes. Sold work consistently over a 35 year period, (mostly to finance more painting materials!) with examples throughout the UK, also in Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the US."
