From Album: Wells John
Matching descriptions: 1. Coastline – Scilly Isles c.1940
Watercolour on paper
Studio stamped
Traces of inscription verso
51/2 x 9 ins 14 x 22.75 cms
Wells took up the post of doctor on the Scilly Isles in 1936. He
continued to paint in his spare time following evening classes at St
Martin’s School of Art and his initial meeting with Ben and Winifred
Nicholson and christopher Wood in Feock, Cornwall in 1928. He
read widely, subscribing to contemporary magazines such as Axis
and Horizon, and his work of this period suggests an affinity with
the biomorphic forms of Surrealism which he used in depictions
of his marine environment. These two studies, never previously
exhibited, explore the organic contours of his island existence.
