John Rogers

Born: 1935

John Rogers was born in 1935 at Haxby in the Vale of York. He was encouraged to draw and paint by his parents and as he remembers 'I was never without a pen and a piece of paper in my hand'.

His early art training between the ages of 11 and 13 was at York School of Art evening classes to where he eventually gained a scholarship. After York he joined the studio of Ben Johnson's printers as a photo lithographic retoucher where he stayed until called up for National Service. During this period he met many artists and this was encouraged by an indulgent C.O.

In 1959 he married married Judith and they moved to Cumbria in 1970 when he was able to indulge his passions of painting, fell walking and bird watching. He built his own studio in the lakes and held exhibitions and demonstrations on a regular basis.

He is a member of the Lake Artists Society and his paintings hang in the permanent collection at Carlisle's Tullie House; at Whitehaven; and at the Beverley Art Gallery, as well as many private art collections in Britain and abroad.
