Description: “The White House, Gardenvale” Original watercolour from the Artist’s Estate A wonderful original watercolour on paper by John Flexmore. The subject is of a white timber cottage in Gardenvale, just around the corner from his residence in Brighton. This house regrettably no longer exists, bulldozed for something more modern. It had lovely gabled rooves period windows and was on a corner (Martin Street I think). Signed and dated lower left, “John Flexmore ’70. It was exhibited in his 1970 show at the Athenaeum Gallery.br John Flexmore, (1911 - 2004) was a well-known Melbourne artist, a watercolour specialist, mainly of representational landscapes. He studied at the National Gallery School, Melbourne from 1930-37 under Bernard Hall, Charles Wheeler and W.B. McInnes. After war service he painted mostly watercolour landscapes, but he also painted several oil portraits under commission. In his early days, made a considerable number of linotype prints. He held biennial one-man shows at the Athenaeum Gallery, Melbourne until 1970. Flexmore’s works are very easy to live with, being very restful. His work is represented in private collections in Australia and overseas. Condition: the picture is in very good vintage condition, the colours are strong and original, no fading.
