Walter Sickert ‘Girl at a Window, Little Rachel’ 1907. One of several pictures of the daughter of his frame maker. I saw this at Tate last year in a light that really highlighted the impasto and surface of the paint. It really resonated with me, particularly after watching the @peterclossick interview on the TV about Sickert & Camden Town group, creating their own brand of Impressionism. #sickert #waltersickert #camdentown #camdentowngroup #london #londonart #peterclossick #camberwell #camberwellarts #lewisham #impasto #oilpainting #redhair #frame #frames #goldframes #impressionism #britishimpressionist #art #artgallery

Sickert’s first love was the theatre and he worked for a short period as an actor, before taking up art as a profession in the late 1880s. As a leading member of the avant-garde group, the New British Arts Club, he developed an interest in Impressionism. He chose low-brow places as his subject, but his locations were British. This shows the Plaza Tiller Girls, a troupe of dancers at the Plaza cinema in Piccadilly.

This was the second attempt at seeing Van Gogh at Tate Britain, the first being aborted due to the alarming length of queues. This time everything was golden. The key pieces were not obscured by throngs of other eager devotees. It is an age since I saw this Starry Night, and the years have not lessened the impact. Playing the game, as so often, of which three pieces we would take home, I surprised myself by choosing two drawings along with a self portrait. His colour is bewitchingly, arrestingly intense, but his monochrome studies have an enchantment all their own.

J M Whistler, Walter Sickert & Mortimer Menpes stayed in this house during their highly influential visit to St Ives in January 1884. The resulting Whistler pictures were shown at Dowdeswell’s, New Bond Street. This exhibition of The American master’s ‘little games’ contained possibly as many as 15 oils of either 5”x9” or 3.5”x5.75” in size. #art #stives #whistler #arthistory #stivesart #whistler #jmwhistler #sickert #menpes #1884

In Colour - Sickert to Riley opening today, 6th March, in Charleston’s new Wolfson Gallery. Curated by Cressida Bell the exhibition positions the work of former Charleston residents - Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant - within a century of great British colourists. I am looking forward to visiting. On until August 26th. Work on show includes this painting of Oranges and Quinces by Robert Dukes along with work from Francis Cadell, Patrick Caulfield, Mary Fedden and Paul Nash. @cressidabell @charlestontrust #britishpainting #colourists #artgallery #painting #sickert

In two weeks time will be presenting my lecture ‘From Tipperary to Westwood’ at the New York Studio School as part of their Evening Lecture Series. The talk ruminates on echos and connections between RB Kitaj and Walter Sickert- both personally and artistically. Link to the event is in my profile. See you in Manhattan, April 10th. 630pm. Til then, back to my notes & the books. @ny_studioschool @ucla #rbkitaj #kitaj #sickert #waltersickert #leefriedlander #lecture #nycart #nyc #tipperary #westwood
