Illustration Interest Original Watercolour By Patience Arnold 1901-1992 'Delivering Christmas Presents' Patience Arnold was born in Royston Yorkshire but spent her childhood in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire. Arnold studied at the Harris School of Art, Preston and became a member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Art. In 1967 Patience set up a studio in the Lake District and continued to produce unique and whimsical illustrations for books, greetings cards and private commissions which brought her national recognition. Our client's mother was a long term friend of Arnold's and many of the works presented here were commissioned privately and have remained in our clients private collection. The works have never been offered for sale commercially until now. Presented here is an original watercolour depicting a snowy street scene with a group of Edwardian children delivering Christmas presents. To the background is a horse and carriage rendered in thin washes of grey and brown watercolour. Signed by the artist to bottom left 'Patience Arnold, 1985'. Framed and mounted under glass, excellent condition. 15 x 11 inches.
