Sheila Fell R.A. (1931-1979), an oil painting on canvas, "Haymaking at Millers Farm 1" dated 1969. 20 ins x 24 ins, signed, framed and with label verso, Stone Gallery. Haymaking at Millers Farm 1 is a fascinating work from the artist`s late and mature period. The busy early evening scene is taken from behind Fell`s parents` house in Aspatria looking towards Aspatria Hall Farm (Gerald Miller`s farm). In its compositional effects and with its hurried striking swirly strokes of paint it recalls John Constable, J.M.W. Turner and Samuel Palmer but at the same time it possesses a wonderful rhythm in the landscape similar to another artist Fell admired namely Vincent Van Gogh but perhaps most of all it can clearly be seen that this landscape is very much in tandem with the technique of Frank Auerbach with whom she shared a studio at one time. They became close friends and Auerbach painted a beautiful portrait in black chalks of her in the early 1960`s. Haymaking at Millers Farm 1 compares favourably with another masterpiece of this period namely Wheat Harvest at Mechie Farm 1 of the same size. This surge of creative power in the late 1960`s gained Fell an A.R.A in 1969. Throughout most of Fell`s painting life she was supported and championed by L.S. Lowry who became her great friend, many times visiting West Cumberland and Aspatria. Lowry believed Fell was the finest English landscape painter of the 20th century. Shelia Fell died in a tragic fall in 1979 in her flat in London aged 48. Her works today can be seen to influence a host of young and modern landscape painters. Haymaking 1 is presented in a walnut Auerbach type frame by Stewart Heslop Frames with museum glass.
