Yes, Charlotte @CE_Browne & thanks for these photos too. One can never tell what might happen in the future: two of John Cooper's previously "unknown" paintings turned up at auction in the recent past, both called "Lyme Regis" so there's hope that a Gloucestershire one might too! https://t.co/lsMa2VujpD
What can I say, John?! @jwripple Mind you, if you look at some of the foliage & plants in "Stoke by Nayland" by his younger brother Harold Steggles, you might think that they both suffered with the same affliction! It dates from 1933. #HaroldSteggles #Essex #ELG https://t.co/4Yx83PYsM6
Good evening Pen @penny_thompson & thank you. Yes, I was very sorry to hear that Michael @MichaelRosenYes has been poorly so I wrote to him & Emma @Underthecranes yesterday to wish them both well. Here's a favourite of theirs: this is "The Scullery" by Walter Steggles from 1927. https://t.co/jvyi3FicbE
@lindsay_bown @BrightonMuseums Good morning Lindsay & thank you: we are both well: I hope the same is true for you both too. Here's a little watercolour sketch by Walter Steggles: with your gardening "hat" on you may recognise what type of plant it is: I'm afraid that it elludes me. Poinsettia maybe? #ELG
Good afternoon John @JohnFordBlagger & thank you. As you say, the visual arts can stimulate us all in these difficult times. Here's one that I haven't shown of late: this is "Old Buildings at Shoreham" by Elwin Hawthorne which is undated but is most likely from 1936. #ELG https://t.co/G3TOdY1S9Z
Good afternoon Lil & thank you: yes, this one is superb! Here's another lovely one by Brynhild Parker which I hope you'll like: this is "In Custody" by her which is in the collection @LeamSpaArtGall #BrynhildParker #ELG https://t.co/4YUfPt7TIw
Good evening Ruth & thank you. How lucky you are to know this view so well: I'm afraid to say that we have yet to visit Broadstairs. Here's a little sketch of "The Bandstand, Broadstairs" by Elwin Hawthorne from 1931. #ElwinHawthorne #Broadstairs #Kent #ELG https://t.co/IMUy1xVFGU
Thank you Peter @OborneTweets (if I may) for the RT. Here's one that I hope you'll like by another member of the Group: this is "The Scullery" by Walter Steggles from 1927. #WalterSteggles #ELG
Good morning Tom & thank you. Yes, it looks as if we're in for another breezy week-end! This view of "Off Dieppe" by Walter Steggles from c.1970 might be a bit nearer the mark as #StormDennis blows in! #WalterSteggles #Dieppe #ELG https://t.co/oO7M5LV58G
Excellent! Until you mentioned it, that thought had never occurred to me! All joking aside, Henry Silk obviously enjoyed this style of "close-up" art. Here's his still life of "Bondman Tobacco", also from c.1932. #HenrySilk #ELG https://t.co/W60fyPEoCt
