John Wealthy (1938 - 2016) was a British artist, teacher, and activist whose creative journey spanned figurative painting to innovative assemblage. After studying at Wimbledon School of Art in the 1950s, he painted lively scenes influenced by artists like Edward Burra and Stanley Spencer, using subtle tones and rhythmic compositions. Later, his focus shifted to abstraction, where he crafted unique collages and sculptures from objects washed up on the shores near his home in Stolford, West Somerset, weaving the spirit of the coastline into his art.
