Description: Alan J. Simpson (1941-2007) - British Original Vintage Nautical Theme Painting - Oil on Canvas with Frame About the Artist: Born in 1941, Alan Simpson lived on the South Coast of England and drew the inspiration for his paintings from the many ports and harbors along the coast. He had a great love of the sea and although he painted many subjects, he was principally a marine painter. He offered many courses in both marine and landscape and although mostly located in the UK, the courses took him to France, Italy, Spain, Gibraltar and Kashmir. In 1979 he was elected a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and his diploma painting is in the permanent collection and custody of the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich. His work has been exhibited at the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, Southampton Civic Art Gallery, and the Mall Gallery in London. He exhibited for many years in US and Canada and was represented in an exhibition of marine painting at the Mystic Seaport, Connecticut and several West Coast Galleries. In Canada he had exhibited at the Richard Beard Gallery and at the Harrison Galleries, Vancouver. In May 1997 he was one of fourteen artists invited by the Jewish National Fund to tour Israel to gather sketches and paintings to be included in a gala exhibition celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of Israel. The exhibition toured London, Liverpool and Glasgow in 1998. His work has been purchased by the Poole Harbour Commissioners, Royle Publications and is included in many private collections. His biographical references can be found in '20th Cent. British Marine Painting' by Denys Brook-Hart, "Watercolour Step By Step" by Hazel Harrison, " Who's Who In Art" by The Art Trade Press and "Celebration of Marine Art" by Blandford Press.
