Martha Simkins Art
1869-1969
Martha Simkins was born in Monticello, Florida, and moved to Corsicana in 1871, and was educated in public schools. She attended the University of Texas and then moved to New York, where she studied six years at the Art Students League of New York and a year at Columbia University. Simkins studied under William Merritt Chase, Kenyon Cox and Henry Siddons Mowbray. She returned to Corsicana and taught in the public schools in 1901. Simkins then taught at North Texas Normal School in Denton from 1901–06. She returned to New York and studied with William Merritt Chase again, and Henry Bayley Snell and Emil Carlsen, after which she traveled to Europe, where she studied with Cecilia Beaux and John Singer Sargent. From 1915–24, Simkins divided her time and work between New York City, Woodstock, where she maintained a studio and her home in Dallas. She continued teaching at the College of Industrial Arts, Denton and produced numerous portrait commissions. Simkins died in Los Angeles County, California.

Jules Elie Peonies by Katharine Rowe floral painting of peonies
By Katharine Rowe
Located in London, GB
Katharine spent a long time mixing paint to reach the right level of smokiness and avoid any saccharine pink in these peonies. They seem to be quite solid but at the same time quite delicate, they are a joy to paint.
Katharine Rowe is an English painter she graduated in Fine Art and History of Art at the University of Edinburgh in 1999 and spent a year studying at Université de la Sorbonne, Paris. Having spent a decade working in advertising Katharine felt the increasing need to be out of the office and with her paintbrush. The past 9 years have been dedicated to just that. Katharine is strongly motivated by colour and she often spends up to an hour mixing and preparing paints before turning to the canvas. Katharine is always inspired by her surroundings from the varied landscapes of London...

Harvest Still Life by Lu Haskew

Still Life of an abundant vegetable garden harvest with onions, eggplant, cabbage and tomato
ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009
"Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons."
Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on
her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years
her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard
Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...
