I've just  heard from  the National Association of Painters in Acrylic that Alwyn Crawshaw has died.  He was an endlessly encouraging tutor, as most of us will know - making films, writing books and articles  for very many years.  I have no further details, other than that a funeral will be held in Norwich; deep sympathies to June.

That is indeed sad news, thanks Robert for the update. Such a genuine man and an inspiration to many, his TV series, books and videos were all part of his legacy, he will be missed by many.

Such a loss , a great artist and many people have benefited from his books etc. I for one spent hours looking at his work and still have days when I look through the books I have for inspiration and encouragement.
