Artist: Eric Waugh         

Title: 'Orange Undulations' - original signed painting in mixed media on paper, framed   

Description: Eric Waugh (born 1929) studied at Croydon School of Art (1946-50) and the Royal College of Art (1950-53).  He exhibited at the Royal Academy, New English Art Club etc, and with Roland Browse Delbanco in Cork Street, London W1.  He painted landscapes, figure subjects (often with sporting activities such as cycling, skating, swimming), and some abstracts.  His work was illustrated in The Studio publication of 1957 'Young Artists of Promise' and in Philip Vann's book 'Face to Face', which included a self portrait.  He lived at South Nutfield in Surrey in the 1950s and 1960s and later in Mexico, Spain and Cornwall.

The present work is an original unframed painting in mixed media, signed by the artist and dated 1965.  It is quite small and measures about about 7.1 x 7.2 inches image size. It is titled 'Orange Undulations', according to an old exhibition sticker attached to the glass, and this work appears to have been #29A, possibly from Waugh's show at Roland Browse Delbanco. The frame is original but has suffered a number of losses over time.  The painting itself is in good condition save for some undulations (excuse the pun on the title of the work!) in the paper.

We think this work was inspired by the artist's visit to the Baltic coast in Germany, in particular the dunes around the town of Ostsee.  Waugh painted a series of pictures there in 1965 / 1966...
