Violet Hilda Drummond Landscape Drawings and Watercolors

1911-2000

Violet Hilda Drummond was born in London. Drummond's father was killed at Ypres in 1914 whilst fighting with the Scots Guards. Brought up by her mother and her two sisters, she was educated in a private boarding school in Eastbourne and at Le château de Vitry-sur-Seine, a Parisian finishing school. Drummond lived in India and studied briefly at St Martin's School of art. She returned to London after she got married and started writing and illustrating children’s picture books. The most notable among them was Miss Anna Truly in 1945 and her Little Laura series from 1960 onwards. She also produced cartoons for the BBC. Mrs Easter and the Stork published in 1957 by Faber & Faber was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal. Tiring of writing children’s books, she took to painting watercolors of London street scenes which she sold in galleries in London and which have remained popular ever since.

Canyon Country by Lu Haskew Pastel 16x20" image size Landscape view of the Grand Canyon ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...
