FrankGreen was born in 1943 in Chirbury, Shropshire to a Liverpool seafaring family who had moved to escape the bombing in Liverpool. They returned to Walton, Liverpool in late 1944 and, from his early school days there, drawing was the most important thing in Frank’s life.
At seventeen, after a year working in a chartered accountant’s office in the centre of Liverpool, Frank gained a place in the Liverpool Art College and was in his element amongst people with the same passion for drawing.
The drawings on display are either finished works or preparatory working drawings for paintings. Frank has been passionate about the Liverpool landscape during and since his days at college; and his work is a valuable record of the demolition of the streets of Everton in the 70’s and Anfield now.
Frank Green says that there is no part of Liverpool which he has painted that does not have the imprint of Welshmen. He was brought up in a street which was built by a Welshman from Cemaes where many Welsh-speaking people from Anglesey and North Wales lived. Both the junior and senior schools which he attended in Walton, Liverpool, had Welsh headmasters from Caernarfonshire, and the College of Art had a large number of students and teachers from Wales.
Pictures of Liverpool, Italy, Malta and Wales will be exhibited.
