Sir William Russell Flint. 1880-1969.

Flint's great knowledge of watercolour painting and his natural ability to portray the female form in its wonderful entirety produced an unmistakable and unique style
that has made him famous throughout the world. Many artists have often attempted to copy his style and techniques, but none have ever suceeded in mastering the subtleties
that made his paintings so wonderful.

Russell Flint became Sir William Russell Flint in 1947, and some 15 years later the paintings of Sir William Russell Flint were given the highest possible honour in a
retrospective exhibition at the Royal Academy's, Diploma Gallery.
It was at this time that the then president of the Royal Academy, Mr Wheeler
complimented Russell Flint's art by describing it as an incredible feat and a 'baffling skill'.

As a successful artist in his own right, Russell Flint was able to take the opportunity to travel, mainly in Europe, and a great deal in France
he painted and drew many scenes, a vast range of landscapes from Switzerland and Scotland to Spain and Italy.
