Peter Gardner Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

British, b. 1921

Peter Gardner was born in London in 1921. He studied at the Hammersmith School of Art between 1935–38, before serving in Italy and the European campaign during World War II. He returned to Hammersmith in 1947, and graduated in 1950. He then attended the London Institute of Education, where he was awarded the Art Teacher's Diploma. Gardner taught art at West Norwood School and became Head of Art at Plaistow Grammar School, as well as teaching at Fulham and South Kensington Adult Education Institute. He exhibited at the Trafford Gallery in London in 1965 and then many others, including the Royal Academy, the ROI and the New English Art Club. He retired from teaching in 1979 and moved to Dorset, where he is still painting today.

A Vintage 1950s Pastel Charcoal Drawing of a Hockey Game by Francis Chapin
By Francis Chapin
Located in Chicago, IL
Perfect for any hockey enthusiast! A dynamic 1950s pastel and charcoal on paper drawing of a hockey game by artist Francis Chapin. Artwork size: 9 x 12 inches; Matted size: 14 x 18 inches. Estate stamped on reverse. Provenance: Estate of the Artist. Francis Chapin, affectionately called the “Dean of Chicago Painters” by his colleagues, was one of the city’s most popular and celebrated painters in his day. Born at the dawn of the 20th Century in Bristolville, Ohio, Chapin graduated from Washington and Jefferson College near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania before enrolling at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1922. He would set down deep roots at the Art Institute of Chicago, exhibiting there over 31 times between 1926 and 1951. In 1927 Chapin won the prestigious Bryan Lathrop Fellowship from the Art Institute – a prize that funded the artist’s yearlong study trip to Europe. Upon his return to the United States, Chapin decided to remain in Chicago, noting the freedom Chicago artists have in developing independently of the pressure to conform to pre-existing molds (as was experienced by artists in New York, for example). Chapin became a popular instructor at the Art Institute, teaching there from 1929 to 1947 and at the Art Institute’s summer art school in Saugatuck, Michigan (now called Oxbow) between 1934 – 1938 (he was the director of the school from 1941-1945). Chapin’s contemporaries among Chicago’s artists included such luminaries as Ivan Le Lorraine Albright...
