Miles Balmford Sharp

Miles Balmford Sharp (28 November 1897 – 20 January 1973) was an English artist from Brighouse, Yorkshire.

Sharp was a painter in oil paint and watercolour, focusing mainly on landscapes and architecture.

Alongside his painting practice Sharp was also a keen etcher, engraver and lithograph artist.

From 14 May – 12 June 1937, Sharp had a large scale exhibition at The Foyles Gallery Charing Cross Road, London, titled English Landscapes, an exhibition of oil paintings and engravings of English landscapes, including forty-seven oil paintings, and ten etchings and line engravings.

These local scenes were painted later in his career when he took up a position as Principal of the Nuneaton Art School between 1925–1952.
