Bought an oil painting of Eric Cottam's yesterday in Keswick. I too would like further information on Eric. I note that he has sadly passed away. The picture is named Watendlath 2002. Any info welcome regarding Eric.

: My husband and I were holidaying with my
: parents in the Lake District in 1982 and
: came across an art exhibition in Ambleside.
: The artist was there (Eric Cottam) and
: talked to us about the various paintings for
: sale. From the many beautiful pictures on
: display we purchased two and took them home.
: My father fell in love with a particular
: picture which was, unfortunately, already
: sold. He spoke of it many times when
: reminiscing about the holiday, always
: wishing we had come across the exhibition
: the day before when the painting would still
: have been for sale. My father is no longer
: alive, but whenever looking at our paintings
: I wonder if the owner of the one we
: "missed" realises how lucky they
: are to have bought it. I don't know if Mr
: Cottam is still alive - he would be a good
: age if he is!
