In the gallery there was an Ivon Hitchens on the wall, colours still bright, a beautiful composition (there was a Henry Moore painting--I think it was Henry Moore--on the wall opposite.)

"How much is that one?" I said, pointing to the one by Ivon Hitchens.

"£36,000."

"And the Henry Moore?"

"£30,000."

Any art collectors out there with £30,000 to spare, I'd recommend an Ivon Hitchens.  They're beautiful, will only go up in value, and are probably £50,000+ these days.

He lived in the woods, built his house, took his easel and paints out into the woods every day, developed a technique of simple brush strokes depicting all manner of depths and resonances...

Here's another one for you, melo.

His line drawings are good, too.

btw, I think afew had some useful comments re: storing pics online.  (If anyone has any useful advice...I wanna read melo's diary and see his pics!)
