| biography:
| Painter, sculptor, book illustrator, and art critic, born in London, UK. His early painting falls into the wartime English neo-Romantic movement. In 1954 he took up sculpture and began treating subjects from Classical mythology. His fascination with the legend of the minotaur led to his building of a maze in brick and stone in the Catskill Mountains, NY. |
