Tirzah Garwood

    Tirzah Garwood bola talentovaná umelkyňa, ktorá sa počas svojho života venovala rôznym umeleckým formám, vrátane drevorytu a olejomaľby. Jej rané drevoryty získali široký ohlas a boli vystavované prestížnymi inštitúciami. Napriek náročnému obdobiu poznačenému rodinnými povinnosťami a osobnou chorobou sa Garwood vrátila k umeniu, pričom jej neskoršia tvorba zahŕňala olejomaľbu a koláž. Jej autobiografia, napísaná v náročných podmienkach, ponúka jedinečný pohľad na jej život a umeleckú dráhu.

      When Tirzah Garwood was 18 she went to Eastbourne School of Art and here she was taught by Eric Ravilious. Over the next four years she did many wood engravings and these were widely praised and several were displayed by the Society of Wood Engravers. Alas, after she and Eric were married in 1930 a large part of her time was spent on domestic chores. In 1935 she had the first of her three children. In 1942 - the year she was operated on for breast cancer - she wrote her autobiography (in the evening, after the children were in bed)
