Corbett moved from Paris to England in 1968 where she pursued her own painting career, presenting twelve solo exhibitions in London. In 1991 she exhibited in Japan, and in the USA in 2004. In 2014 an exhibition of her watercolours were shown at Theater Bremen, concurrently with a major exhibition of Picasso’s work inspired by her, ‘Sylvette, Sylvette, Sylvette’ held at the Kunsthalle Bremen. These two exhibitions were the subject of a film produced by ARTE broadcast in England and Germany.

Original painting by Romi Behrens (1939-2019)
‘Pineapple with Mixed Fruit’
Located in Castle Cary, GB
This original oil painting by Romi Behrens is an excellent and vibrant example of her work. Romi Behrens was born in Wiltshire, and moved to Cornwall in 1959, where she lived for the rest of her life. A multi-talented and thoroughly creative person, she was a talented visual artist as well as violinist. She was a long-term member of the Newlyn Society of Artists since the late 1960s, where her paintings were often exhibited in mixed shows.

In 2020 a body of paintings by Romi Behrens was selected for the 'St Ives Modernists' exhibition at David Simon...
