Still worth  featuring even if we only see a few of his paintings , I can alway do his work as a extra on one of the weeks ? .
Thank you very much for the list Dixie, much appreciated. I wanted a reminder to be able to go back to some that I liked and want to check out again sometime. 👍👏
Cheers paul - I've just captured a number of his paintings (John Voss) from the auction catalogue so will have plenty to include.
Thanks for the list, Paul, really helpful.  A few earlier suggestions seem to have slipped off - Terence Clarke, Richard Thorn, Aubrey Beardsley.  I thought Randolph Caldecott had also been suggested and you asked if I would introduce Shelly Perkins. (And spelling of Ian Sidaway.) Thanks again, you’re doing a great job.

Thanks for list Paul, it’s Kelvin  Okafor by the way!
Paul, could you tell us who’s showcasing who next week… I thought I saw the name Tim Benson crop up, which if I’m not mistaken is one that I put forward… thanks.
My apologies Alan in my haste to do the list I completely forgot to mention who is introducing who next week , I will take the liberty and blame the heat affecting my solar panel( bald head). Yes you are correct in that you did suggest Tim Benson and if you would kindly present him tomorrow evening when I open the thread , Gillian will you follow on Wednesday with Kelvin Okofar please . I seem to be making more mistakes than usual this week , I have ruined two paintings by messing with them , role on some cooler weather. 
Great stuff! I’ll knock out a few paragraphs later on, I don’t need to refer to Google I don’t think on this one,  I’m fairly familiar with his style and approach to portrait painting.
Looking forward to seeing your intro and his artwork.
