Mary Feddon III

 


Mary Feddon (14 August 1915 – 22 June 2012).  Mary's paintings like those of Mary Newcomb and Elizabeth Blackadder are reassuringly kind and human.

Mary Fedden II


Now we enter full winter, those silent snow days waiting for the sun to warm and spring to come. 
Mary Fedden has many wonderful pictures of sheep in the snow, patiently waiting.

Mary Fedden I

A selection of paintings about birds in the snow by Mary Fedden (1915-2012).
Mary was born in Bristol and from an early age set her ambitions on being an artist. She attended The Slade School of Art between 1932-1936 studying under Russian theatre designer Vladimir Polunin. On graduating she painted sets for Sadler's Wells but decided against a career in stage design and returned to Bristol to teach art and work as a painter. In 1951 she married fellow artist Julian Trevelyan during her life-time she painted prolifically and there are many works that you can enjoy.
