Ray Howard-Jones 1903-1996

Ray Howard-Jones was born in Lambourn, Berkshire of Welsh parents. From 1920 to 1924, she studied at the Slade, but her career as an artist did not take off until she became one of the few accredited female war artists ? many of these works are now in the Imperial War Museum. She is best known for her views of the Island of Skomer off the Pembrokeshire coast where she spent long periods of time between 1949 and 1958.
