Biography
| Although there is to date no biography of Ethel Walker or catalogue raisonne of her art, Tate Archives house a collection of notes on her life and career compiled by the painter Grace English, who met Walker in 1931 and became her friend and patron. English wrote about her first visit to the artist: 'I was invited to see her work at her Chelsea studio, 127 Cheyne Walk ... The studio was just a first floor double room in an old Victorian house on Chelsea Embankment, overlooking the river... In this studio she lived, slept, worked and received her friends and models, surrounded by her paintings, and her dogs, always rough haired terriers, in succeeding generations, for company' |
