Patrick Caulfield was born in 1936 (d. 2005) and lived, studied and worked in London. He drew inspiration from everyday scenes and items found in our homes, exploring them with efficient, bold lines that were often black and a smooth painting style with even colour panes. Caulfield wasn’t one for self promotion and didn’t want to be associated with a specific artistic movement, though he was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1987, became a Royal Academician in 1993, was appointed CBE in 1996 and his contribution to British painting and printmaking is undisputed.
