Paul Nash in Pictures: Landscape and Dream
A new book by James Russell Paul Nash in Pictures: Landscape and Dream has been published by The Mainstone Press. It follows their beautifully produced series of illustrated books on Eric Ravilious and Edward Bawden.
The book explores Nash's life, the places and people he knew - and the inspiration behind twenty-two of his oil paintings. A second volume will feature Nash's watercolours.
BBC - Your Paintings
35 paintings by Paul Nash are now online in Your Paintings, a new BBC website which aims to show the entire collection of the nation's oil paintings. Growing each month, the site will eventually include around 200,000 paintings. The section on Nash is fascinating as it displays some of his lesser-known works: Visit Link
There is also a good collection of work by John Nash: Visit link
Art Workshops at the Earth Trust
To launch the Paul Nash and the Wittenham Clumps website, three art workshops for adults and families were held at the Earth Trust Centre, Little Wittenham on Friday 11th March and Saturday 12th March 2011. Participants were taken on a guided walk up the Clumps before creating artworks inspired by Nash's paintings.
We were thrilled with the quality and variety of work produced.
A selection of some of the paintings, sketches and collages are available to view here.
The workshops were supported by the North Wessex Downs AONB Sustainable Development Fund.
