*SUSHILA SINGH (1904-1999) A coastal town at night

Note: An overlooked painter, muralist and wood engraver, Sushila Singh was born in India and studied at Hornsey School of Art and the Royal College of Art, graduating in 1929. Her early work was surrealist, her later work was more abstract with a near dream-like quality and is only now being properly appreciated.
She took part in many shows including by the Arts Council’s ‘Committee for Encouragement of Music and the Arts’ (CEMA) during the Second World War and in public galleries including in Bradford, Leeds and Wakefield; her work is held in many galleries. She lived in Bournemouth and was married to the decorative artist Arthur Henry Andrews (1906-1966).
