About the Item
Pastel on paper, signed (lower right), 50cm x 74cm (70cm x 92cm framed). The picture is good condition and the work comes directly from the artist.
Painter, draughtsman and teacher, born in St Neots, Cambridgeshire. During the 1980s Murfin participated in Artist in School schemes in Cambridgeshire and nearby counties, and 1983 gained a major award from Eastern Arts Association. In 1990 he was visiting lecturer at University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada, and artist-in-resident at Oundle School. Murfin is a realistic painter with a wide range of subjects who took part in many mixed showed, including Tolly Cobbold/Eastern Arts 2nd National Exhibition, 1979; 2nd International Drawings Triennale, Nuremberg, Germany, 1982; Drawings for All, Gainsborough’s House, Sudbury, 1986; and British Council touring show Picture People, 1989–90. Murfin has exhibited widely, both in the UK and internationally. His work is contained in many regional art galleries, as well as the Government Art Collection. This work continues a series of paintings in which the artist finds the beauty of the male form, in the most unexpected places!

Stonehouse had an extraordinary life. As a young art student studying fashion illustration, he joined the Royal Artillery at the beginning of WWII but soon became a part of the Special Operations Executive (SOE).

He spent the subsequent war years in three French prisons and five concentration and labour camps, including Dachau. He still managed to continue to draw in some of the camps.
