For additional images please visit sofedesignauctions.com Patrick Heron was an English painter, writer and designer, based in St. Ives, Cornwall. Many of his works can be seen at The Tate Collection, London and at Tate, St Ives, Cornwall. On 24 May 2004, the Momart warehouse fire destroyed a number of Heron's most important works. Heron was recognised as one of the leading painters of his generation. Influenced by Cezanne, Matisse, Braque and Bonnard, Heron made a significant contribution to the dissemination of modernist ideas of painting through his critical writing and primarily his art. Heron's artworks are most noted for his exploration and use of color and light. He is known for both his early figurative work and non-figurative works, which over the years looked to explore further the idea of making all areas of the painting of equal importance. His work was exhibited widely throughout his career and while he wrote regularly early in his career, notably for New Statesman and Arts New York, this continued periodically in later years.
