About the Item

Norman Meredith was British painter and illustrator, born in Liverpool (1909 - 1985) England. He studied at the Liverpool College of Art. He subsequently won a scholarship to the Royal College of Art, where he studied painting under Sir William Rothenstein. He won a traveling scholarship and studied in Italy, France and Germany. Between 1947 and 1974 he lectured in Art at University College, Aberystwyth and gave visiting lectures at St Martins School of Art. Meredith has contributed numerous illustrations to a large number of magazines including Punch, Tatler, The Sketch and The Bystander. His career as a children's book illustrator began when Enid Blyton asked him to illustrate her stories at the end of World War II. Since then he has illustrated over one hundred books, using pen and ink with Normantone. He has also designed textiles for Moygashel and Crowson Fabrics, tin box designs for the Metal Box Co., Hammersmith, greetings cards and gift-wraps for the Cavendish Card Co. Since 1978 he has concentrated on humorous full-colour paintings of animals having anthropomorphic fun.

  • Be Mine Valentine
    By Keith Carrington
    Located in Delray Beach, FL
    Be Mine Valentine, ink and watercolor on archival paper under plexiglass white frame. Keith Carrington’s experiences have led him to express his talents through the fluid & exacting mediums of watercolor and ink. He has honed his skills, clarified his vision, experimented, explored and expanded his expression steadily over the years, the results of which thus far culminate here. Keith’s extensive travels have roots in the luminous quality of his work, eminently holding the unlimited possibilities of beauty and significance. Keith’s most recent paintings combine original comic book renderings that his mother did for Disney et al. and reinterprets them effectively combining the past with present energies and infuses his enthusiasm into these dynamic pieces that you see here today.
