    The Artist

    Lamorna Birch studied briefly at the Atelier Colarossi in 1895-1896, but was largely a self-taught artist who painted in his spare time while working at a mill near Lancaster. In the late 1880s he began visiting Cornwall, later settling in the Lamorna valley. In 1892, on the suggestion of Stanhope Forbes, he added 'Lamorna" to his own name to distinguish himself from the local painter Lionel Birch. In Cornwall, he became associated with Forbe's Newlyn School of Art, and ultimately developed his own following of Newlyn artists sometimes known as the Lamorna group, which included Alfred Munnings, Stanley Gardiner, Laura and Harold Knight and Charles and Ella Naper. Though based in Cornwall for over 50 years, Birch also made frequent trips to Scotland, Wales and North West England in order to satisfy his two passions, landscape painting and fishing.

    He exhibited at the RA from 1892  until his death, becoming an associate member in 1924  and a full academician in 1932 . He also exhibited at the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts, the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, Manchester City Art Gallery and the Royal Society of Painters in Watercolours, and held solo shows at the Fine Art Society from 1906 .
