William Kay Blacklock Art

British, 1872-1924
William Blacklock was a British painter who was born in Bishopwearth, Sunderland in 1872 . It is evident from documents from his youth that the artist appears to have added the middle name of Kay only once he had become an artist. William began his artistic training at eighteen as a lithograph apprentice. He then went onto study at the Royal College of Art after moving to Chelsea, London with his wife Ellen Richardson. He then went onto study at Edinburgh School of Art in 1902 and was commissioned to paint two paintings that would be hung in the chancel of St Andrew’s Episcopal Church. However, after finishing at Edinburgh School of Art the couple moved to an artist’s colony at Walberswick, Suffok. The artist colony had been founded by the artist Philip Wilson Steer and was a circle of English Impressionists. However, Blacklock did not adopt the style of the Impressionists and instead focused on traditional Victorian genre painting. William Blacklock’s subjects often focused on his wife ‘Nellie’ and his daughter Eleanor, who would model for him within rural settings. During his lifetime Blacklock exhibited seventeen works at the Royal Academy between 1897 and 1918. He also exhibited his work at the Royal Institute of Oil Painters.

The atwork “Dutch Interior”, signed by W. Kay Blacklock, portrays a warm, intimate domestic scene set inside a rustic European cottage. William Kay Blacklock was active between the late Victorian era and the early 20th century, with most of his mature work produced between 1890 and 1920. This piece likely dates from the Edwardian period (early 1900s), when he created many interiors in a romanticized Dutch style. At the center, a woman—likely a mother—sits quietly beside a wicker cradle...

By Arie Azene

Located in Surfside, FL

Arie Azene, Israeli painter, born in Germany, 1934 Arie (Eisman) Azene was born in Hamburg, Germany. He immigrated to the Land of Israel with his parents soon after birth. In 1958, after studying art in Paris, he settled on Kibbutz Tzova in the Judean Hills, where he lived for 28 years. He spent 1968-1970 in France, England and Germany. In 1984, he moved to Jerusalem. Stylistically, Azene was influenced by the New Horizons group to which he was exposed during his studies at the Avni Institute in Tel Aviv. Other influences were Joseph Zaritsky, Avigdor Stematsky and Yehezkel Streichman. Azene works in oil paint, pencil and aquarelle. His early work was abstract, but over the years, it has become more figurative and realistic. His colour palette is often based on two complementary hues, with a predominance of various combinations of gray.
