    Art Brokerage: Sir Cedric Morris Welsh Artist: b. 1889-1982. Sir Cedric Morris was a Welsh painter and horticulturist. He was a self-taught painter but attended the académies libres in Paris as a young man. He was a member of the art communities of Newlyn in Cornwall (1919–20), Paris (1921–6) and London (1926–39). Although he had experimented with abstraction, he resigned from the society when it moved away from representation. Between 1937 and 1975, Morris and Lett-Haines directed the distinctly non-academic East Anglian School of Painting and Drawing; in 1940 the school was moved to Morris's home at Benton End, Hadleigh, Suffolk, where he also cultivated a garden and bred irises. Morris's paintings combine a strong sense of colour with pictorial economy, often with unusual tactility. Conveyed with great immediacy, a painting's principal motif is usually juxtaposed boldly with a contrasting background. His subjects include still-lifes and flower paintings, landscapes and townscapes, both local and from his wide travels. However, some of his most arresting works are his portraits.
