Bridlington artist, Estella Brown
Estella Brown was a highly regarded artist who lived in Bridlington for over 70 years and whose paintings vividly depict and celebrate her home town and the East Riding.
In her striking and ageless pictures, she captured the joy of the English seaside, town and country. Favouring tradition over modernity, Estella’s work evoked the beauty and innocence of a simple and unspoilt past. She rarely travelled outside her beloved Yorkshire – if she couldn’t cycle there, she wouldn’t go!
Yet ironically it was her paintings that voyaged further, with her picture of a Waterloo battle being selected and hung at The Royal Academy and her work appearing in galleries across the UK including Bridlington, Hull, Cambridge and London.
