Leonard Machin Rowe
Mid 20th Century, Child with her Dog in English Countryside

1950's

About the Item

England, Child and her Dog strolling in Countryside by Leonard Machin Rowe (1880-1968) unsigned watercolour painting on artist's paper affixed to board, unframed sheet 8.5 x 11.25 inches An utterly charming little painting by Leon. Rowe, unsigned but is from the portfolio of Rowe's work which we hold. We have listed this as 1950's but suspect it is 1940's based on the paper and the style and colours used when we compare it to other work by Rowe from the '40s in our collection. The scene is perfect, a young girl strolls towards a village with her dog alongside her, its tail held high. Most of Rowe's work we have was completed in Europe on painting trips, but a small selection are of British scenes, this is one of them. This work forms part of an extensive watercolour collection we currently hold by Rowe. Known as Leon Rowe, the artist was born in Staffordshire, England, in Christmas week of 1880. His career and business involved in him interior decoration, and the design and painting of theatre production stage scenery. He had a love of painting in watercolour for his own pleasure and the collection of work we currently hold by this artist shows exemplary skill. In his later years he was able to travel to Europe where much of his post war work was executed, although examples of his paintings are recorded as early as 1914, when he would have been around 25 years old. His earlier work shows his signature as Leon Rowe but the majority he signed as L M Rowe - as is the case here. He passed away in 1968. condition report: No tears. The sheet the painting is on is attached to a backing board, it is loose from the backing board on the lower left corner. The edges are rough and discoloured slightly but the main image is clean. The artist has made a couple of very small paint splashes in the sky area. The board has a slight convex curve to it and we only mention it for completeness of description.

    Canyon Country by Lu Haskew Pastel 16x20" image size Landscape view of the Grand Canyon ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...
