• City and Guilds of London Art School Michael Fell Hon RE[1][2][3] (31 January 1939 – 12 March 2023) was a British painter, printmaker and draftsman in the figurative tradition.

From this studio, Fell produced a large body of landscape paintings, prints and sketches depicting local nature, village life and festivals and his own social scene, which included a variety of figures such as writers Fabrizio Calvi and Theodore Gorton, the English High Court Judge Sir John Vinelott and the French contemporary artist Janine Dufau owner of the nearby Chateau de Bazian.
