Terrick Williams

He was educated at King's College School, Wimbleton, London[1] and was expected by his father to continue in the family business.

However, his determination to become an artist saw him abandon his business career and move to Europe in 1885[2] and study under Charles Verlat in Antwerp and later at the Académie Julian and Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant, William-Adolphe Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury in Paris.

After his student days in Paris, he moved to St. Ives in 1890 where he lived, between there and his London home at 89 Guntherstone Road, West Kensington, until his death.

[4] He travelled extensively and his impressionistic, luminous paintings sought the transient effects of light and reflections in Venice, St. Tropez, Paris, Brittany and St. Ives.

He died in at the Joe Park Nursing Home in Plymouth on his birthday in 1936 aged 76, after a number of years of indifferent health.
