About the Item

Saied Dai (b.1958), draughtsman and teacher, born in Tehran, Persia (his second name is an abbreviation of the full Persian version). He described himself as “wilfully independent”, and was a serious artist who tackled a wide range of subjects without regard to fashion. Dai was brought to England aged six and was largely abandoned by his parents, being sent to boarding schools and uncongenial foster parents. He described his secondary school as “a hermetically sealed society based on physical and psychological violence.” Dai studied at Bournemouth School of Art and Design, graduating to the Royal Academy Schools where his teachers included Peter Greenham, Norman Blamey, Roderic Barrett, Lawrence Gowing, Victor Pasmore, William Scott and Leonard Rosoman. He was invited back to teach drawing under Leonard McComb and insisted that “Drawing reveals the way an artist thinks. It is the means by which one makes visual relationships.” Dai’s solo show at Petley Fine Art in 2005 was accompanied by a well-illustrated catalogue with a perceptive introduction by Roger Berthoud. Dai lived near Bath, Somerset.

VEIW towards SANTA MAGDALENA
By Martin Yeoman
Located in Pollenca, Illes Baleares
Martin produces atmospheric pieces; employing a rich, muted colour palette and velvet blacks to create a dream-like sensuality that pervades his work. The artist's forays into clay have also opened up an interesting dialogue between his sculpture and figure painting. Working across a broad range of mediums including chalk, pen and ink, pencil, oils, pastels, etching and clay, Martin has developed a style that draws inspiration from Francisco De Goya and Eugene Delacroix. His variety of mediums is matched by his diversity of subjects and genres, which include landscapes, seascapes, urban scenes, portraits, figure painting, sculpture and still lifesMartin Yeoman was born in 1953 and trained from 1975-1979 at the Royal Academy Schools, London. Since then he has been prolific in portraiture, still life, landscape and sculpture, and has undertaken notable commissions including Ed Sheeran...
