Artist: Bernard Carter (British, 1920-2014)
Title: On the Avon at Netton
Medium: Oil on board
Size: 16.5 x 17.5 inches (42 x 44 cm) including the frame
Bernard Carter was a true naive painter of the 20th century. A traditional schoolteacher, he was enthusiastic about painting since the age of 4.
Carter spent WW2 in Egypt with the R.A.F: after the war he married and lived in South London with his wife and child.
His style is extremely delicate, using fresh light colours. He was especially fond of painting stretches of water such as pools and rivers, and he was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of such districts.
Everything he painted was clearly and accurately presented - it's very naturalness gives his painting a supernatural air.

A beautiful mid 20th century French naif oil on canvas depicting two men fishing on a river by André Bouquet. The artist is featured in Anatole Jakovsky's ''Peintres Naifs'' which is known as the bible of 20th century naif painters.

Size: 16.5 x 19.5 inches (42 x 50 cm) including the frame
André Bouquet was a butcher by trade, who had his stall in open air markets. In order to have more time to paint, however, he became a factory cook and later a foreman in the same factory.
He lived only for his painting, which once he stopped working he did every day of the week, including Sundays. He is a sensitive and delicate artist, especially when depicting Parisian suburbs, of which he has caught the atmosphere remarkably. He also painted numerous snow landscapes.
