John Gregory King b1929 The Tiverton Hunt A lovely pencil drawing by the extremely widely exhibited artist John King (see biography below). Signed bottom right and titled "The Tiverton". I guarantee this is an original pencil drawing by John King and not a print! I am selling another similar drawing and can combine shipping on both. Dimensions: 14 inches by 10 inches (360mm by 260mm) Condition: in good condition, the drawing has previously been mounted and there is evidence of this around the border, light creases etc. Biography John Gregory King was born at West Tytherley near Salisbury and was educated at Canford, a school with some artistic tradition, William Coldstream being for some time the art master there. He still lives in the same house as he did as a child, now with his wife and family. He left school to farm but soon began to draw and paint seriously and received some brief training in figure drawing from the Salisbury School of Art. One of his strongest influences is Lionel Edwards, a close family friend and neighbour. From a farming background, he was brought up with horses and country sports and his work covers all equestrian sports, particularly hunting, as well as military and ceremonial occasions as this work demonstrates. His talents were recognized early and he became much in demand, especially for presentation
