About the Item

Artist: Gillie Cawthorne (English, 1963-) Title: "Eager Spaniel" *Signed and dated by Cawthorne lower right Year: 2015 Medium: Original Watercolor on paper Framing: Recently framed in a burl wood moulding and 100% cotton rag matting Framed size: 22.25" x 28" Image size: 12" x 17.5" Condition: In excellent condition Notes: A spaniel is a type of gun dog. Spaniels were especially bred to flush game out of denser brush. By the late 17th century, spaniels had been specialized into water and land breeds. The extinct English Water Spaniel was used to retrieve water fowl shot down with arrows. Biography: Gillie Cawthorne (1963-) is an English artist who specializes in watercolor and pastel. She was born in Coxhoe, UK and went to school at Durham University, Durham, UK. Since graduating with a degree in Geology from Durham University in 1985, Gillie has painted professionally in watercolor and soft pastel and has exhibited paintings in many solo and joint exhibitions across Great Britain. She had her first show in America exhibiting at Holland & Holland, New York, NY in 2003 and subsequently developed a great demand for her work in the United States as well. In 2011, she was commissioned by Durham University to paint the portrait of nationally renown writer and Chancellor of Durham University Bill Bryson. Today, she continues to work from her studio in the Pennines, UK. "My work is very much based on my love of the natural world, and I am fascinated by the effects of light and atmosphere. I hope to pass on to viewers of my pictures, some of the enjoyment and wonder that I experience, particularly in nature, but also in magnificent buildings like Durham Cathedral." - Gillie Cawthorne
