Tirzah Garwood Boeken

Tirzah Garwood was een getalenteerde kunstenares die gedurende haar leven diverse artistieke media verkende, waaronder houtgravure en olieverfschilderijen. Haar vroege houtgravures oogstten aanzienlijke bijval en werden tentoongesteld door gewaardeerde genootschappen. Ondanks periodes die huiselijke taken en persoonlijke tegenspoed vereisten, keerde Garwood terug naar haar artistieke praktijk, waarbij ze later olieverfschilderijen en collage omarmde. Haar autobiografie, geschreven onder uitdagende omstandigheden, biedt een uniek perspectief op haar leven en creatieve reis.

When Tirzah Garwood was 18 she went to Eastbourne School of Art and here she was taught by Eric Ravilious. Over the next four years she did many wood engravings and these were widely praised and several were displayed by the Society of Wood Engravers. Alas, after she and Eric were married in 1930 a large part of her time was spent on domestic chores. In 1935 she had the first of her three children. In 1942 - the year she was operated on for breast cancer - she wrote her autobiography (in the evening, after the children were in bed)
