Job Nixon (1891–1938) was an English painter and engraver.
[2] When he was eighteen, he won a scholarship to the Royal College of Art.
[2] He later studied at the Slade School of Fine Art,[2] and then another scholarship enabled him to attend the British School of Engraving in Rome.
[2] He became an associate of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1928 and a member in 1934.
[1][2] In a review of a 1972 exhibition by fellow Staffordshire-born engraver Geoffrey Heath Wedgwood, Edward Morris wrote:[9] Wedgwood was one of the first pupils to be able to study engraving alone for his diploma [at the RCA] and he profited from the vigorous manner of Job Nixon [1891–1938] rather than from the more refined, delicate approach of the Professor, Sir Frank Short.
