Sir Henry Moore ... old alumni of where I went to Senior school.
'I'd rather have my sculpture in the landscape, than on the most beautiful building I know'
One of his recurring themes ... ... ... King and Queen ... ... ... in Scotland, I believe, hopefully still in situ.
One of my favourite pieces of his work, yes we studied his work to GCE A level in 3D Art classes
A long-stitch tapestry I did from a kit and which my then husband had framed for me.

A Charcoal drawing of my Boris 1997 @Anonymous
I took Boris into Art College and he was "having a lie down" for all the class to do life drawings
this was to get animals on the move, but he didn't move much!
Love that boy

His paintings are loose (in every sense of the word!)
and active Also can be very pretty

I also love the paintings by renown wildlife artist David Shepherd and, with our little Hope born and living in Amboseli, thought it appropriate to share David Shepherd`s painting "Elephants at Amboseli"
[although, of course, it doesn`t include Hope and family]

David Shepherd was a committed conservationist
So very apt for your posting @Mi-Amigo You reminded me of him, his paintings were used on plates, place mats, cups just about everything 😁
Probably not as appreciated as he ought to have been.
He would have been a great asset today I expect.

I remember perusing the sliding doors on which Boots paintings were displayed.
