| About the artist
Born: 1911
Anne Spalding was a precocious talent from childhood and was sent to the Ruskin College of Art before the last war. She exhibited widely but it was not until late in life that she was discovered and her career took off. An exhibition at Sally Hunter Fine Art established her reputation in the 1980's and her work is much sought after. Her slightly Faux Naive style is highly appealing. From the 1940's she produced a series of lithographic portraits of famous people, 8 of which can be viewed on the National Portrait Gallery's web site by following this link www.npg.org.uk/live/search/person.asp?LinkID=mp50379&role=art
A friend of Anne tells us (18 April 2010) that "She is the same Anne who had Ch Williams and Gerald Hopkins as her lodgers in 1940s and her memories of these people are still fresh, as well as of her years spent in the Ruskin school of art and while studying with Barnett Freedman."
