Artist Biography

Arthur Henry Enock (1839-1917) was a landscape artist from Glamorganshire, although he later lived in Birmingham, Dartmouth, Torquay, and Newton Abbot. He was a self-taught artist, beginning his career working for a Brazilian merchant in Birmingham. There he studied the Coxes, and during his holidays he sketched at Betws-y-Coed and around Snowdon. He exhibited at Birmingham from 1869 to 1910 as well as in London. In about 1890 he turned to art as a profession and moved to Devon, where he was known as 'The Artist of the Dart'. He painted in both oil and watercolour, the latter particularly later in life. He was noted for his handling of mist and sunlight. He exhibited a total of 74 works, including thirteen at the Royal Institute of Watercolour Painters, two at the Royal Scottish Academy, one at the Royal Hibernian Academy, and twenty-five at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists.
