Peter Newcombe (1943- ) was born in Blisworth, Northamptonshire. He studied illustration and etching at Northampton School of Art, where he won a travelling scholarship. His work first became known in 1968 with a set of twelve drawings illustrating ‘The Shepherds Calendar’ by John Clare, which were featured on the BBC. In 1970 he was awarded a major art grant from the Elizabeth T. Greenshield Foundation in Canada and it was around this time that he began exhibiting in London including at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour. In 1979 he designed a set of flower stamps for the Post Office.
The subjects of Newcombe’s paintings are gathered almost entirely from the area of Northamptonshire where he lives, and include studies of landscape and flora in all seasons. He has a particular interest in old buildings and wild flowers.
