Robin Alexander Elliott (b.1936) oil on canvas, Untitled surrealist landscape, signed, 99 x 74cm Born in London in 1936, Robin Alexander Elliott trained at Sidcup School of Art between 1951 and 1956, training under Frank Auerbach and Jack Smith, amongst others. After receiving his Diploma, Robin did National Service at Catterick Camp in Yorkshire. There he was inspired by the landscape of the Yorkshire Dales and produced many paintings of the area during his time in the army.

Once he had completed his service Robin worked as a freelance illustrator before landing his first solo exhibition at the Hammond Lloyd Gallery, London. Nature and the British landscape continued to serve as key sources of inspiration for his work, which was also informed by travels in Europe and America, and five years spent living in the hills of Cerro e Alcaria, Portugal.
