2024 Fourth Quarter Challenge
The final challenge of this year is to make something in the style of, or inspired by, Eric Ravilious (1903-1942) who was a British painter, designer, book illustrator and wood-engraver.
The Tate Gallery wrote of his paintings as being ‘off-kilter with modernist sensibility and clarity’.
(All images shown are in the public domain).
Wiltshire Landscape (1937)
Tea at Furlongs (1939)
Interior at Furlongs (1939)
Train Going over a Bridge at Night (1935)
Beachy Head (1939)
Windmill (1934)
There are many images on the internet of Eric Ravilious’ work so please explore this talented and interesting artist, and perhaps find the inspiration to make your challenge piece.

That’s an interesting one. I love that first image and I can see it in mixed media, though if I’ll ever get round to doing it I don’t know. We’ll see.
Please – how is Lyn?

Hello Ann, I hope you get time to have a go at the challenge – it doesn’t have to be a big piece! I’ve sent you a message through the forum. Kind regards, Lyn
Another great challenge. I haven’t seen this artist’s work before so I look forward to seeing more of his work. I haven’t been very good at the challenge’s this year but Ann B. pointed out to me that I completed the first quarter challenge with my BBQ tool roll so there’s at least one done 😉
I hope to achieve this challenge too – but if I use my dodgy eye it may look a bit Picasso 🙂
Quite a challenge….
I’m liking the artwork shown, although I’ve not come across this artist before.
Happy to see your earlier reply.

Thank you Antje 🙂
Looks like fun. I will have to go looking for more pictures. they are very textured. I hope I get sometime to do it before the quarter runs out.
