Note:
Blair Hughes Stanton was one of the most acclaimed artists
in Britain during the interwar era, known for his role in the
revival of wood engraving in Modern art. He studied under
Leon Underwood at his Brook Green School alongside
Henry Moore and Eileen Agar, where he developed a
unique visual language, creating works that were a
celebration of love and physicality. Alongside his first wife,
Gertrude Hermes, Hughes Stanton became a much sought after
book illustrator, his wood engravings featuring in books
by his friend D.H. Lawrence and T.E. Lawrence's Seven

Studied two years under painting department chairman, Wilbur Niewald. While attending school in Kansas City he became intrigued with the impressionist school of painting and their use of nature as a source of information for their work. Using the infinite variations of nature in the still life, figure and landscape, the artist is presented with limitless subject matter. Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro and other painters of nature were earlier influences on Phillip's work. Dealing with ever-changing elements of nature, movement of light and shadow in the landscape, field workers finishing their tasks, Phillip adopted a broken color style of applying paint to his canvas. This approach allowed the image on the canvas to be developed quickly, and all at one time. Phillip has lived and painted in the Northwest since 1989. His long desire to paint the subject matter of the impressionists painters and his belief that beautiful subject matter increases the probability of painting beautiful paintings, inspired two painting trips to Mexico and ten trips to Europe. In April of 2007, April of 2008 and again in 2014, a rented boat on the Canal du Midi, France served as a form of transportation, a floating studio and hotel. Early painting trips to France, England, and Spain were shared adventures with English painter Jeffrey Pratt...Category
