Anthony studied
at Liverpool College of Art at the time of the Beatles. He then
continued Post-graduate painting at the Slade School where his tutor
was the great Sir Ernst Gombrich, and it was his book " The Story of
Art", that initiated Antony's interest in 'Stories' about the
artists.
His
presentations all started at this time in the '50's and it is his
personal research in the 'footsteps' of his artists that illuminate
his talks. From Guernica to Giverny, Florida to Flanders, and Paris
to St,Petersburg. It was on these travels that Anthony discovered
the sources of his artists creativity and he made amazing
discoveries.
