I have started this topic so that followers of this blog can write about artists and literature that they wish to recommend. I am sure many of you are regular readers of books on the subject and its history.

May I be the first and recommend a watercolour artist who tends to go under the radar but is well worth a look into his prodigious output. Ernest William Haslehust (1866 - 1949) produced watercolours for travel guides by various authors and I find it quite amazing the amount of work he produced over his life most of which was of a very good standard.

I will also post if no one minds, perhaps once a week, of other artists work and literature.

Regards Peter
