(1932 – 2010, aged 77) |
Thank you for visiting this site. The
online Trevor Stubley Gallery is here to let you view a range
of work by Trevor Stubley. Born in Leeds, in the United Kingdom
in 1932, Stubley has achieved a great deal in the art world.
He has completed over 500 commissioned portraits, and illustrated
around 400 children's books. Stubley has painted throughout
Europe, won many awards and held countless exhibitions.
Stubley portraits can be commissioned
as drawings, pastels or oils on canvas. Oils and pastels capture
colouring and complexion most accurately, whilst drawings
mainly concentrate on the structure of the head. Portraits
are painted from life, the number and duration of sittings
is necessarily approximate depending on the state of the work
in progress. For more information about Trevor Stubley visit
the Profile page.
Sitters have included members of the
Royal Family, distinguished academics and politicians, and
people from the armed forces, commerce, medicine and the arts.

picture in a group, you will be able to see a larger view
and detailed description in a new window.
After the loss of his wife Valerie in November 2008, Trevor lost his lust for life. His health gradually declined, cutting out all inputs from outside. He died on January the 5th 2010, thirteen months later.
He will be remembered with love and affection by his family and friends and by private and public collectors of art as a top ranking British artist.
I have decided, rather than regretting
what I have failed to do with my life,
to take solace in what I have done.
Trevor Stubley, note to Lynne Green |
