Tom Henderson Smith
2nd September 1949 - 8th November 2019
Tom Henderson Smith’s approach to
painting was based on a sense of design
that was confirmed for him by two formative
years spent in Italy after graduating in Fine
Art from Newcastle University in 1971. At the
same time a sensuous enjoyment of colour
and paint qualities influenced by childhood
years in Africa was important to him.
Cornwall brought together these personal
preoccupations through its landscape,
culture and over-arching quality of maritime
light.
