Unity Spencer

Today, to mark the publication of her candid autobiography Lucky to be an Artist, The Fine Art Society in London opened Unity Spencer. Together with 50 of her oil paintings from all periods of her career, the exhibition will include samples of work from her artistic family: father Stanley Spencer, her mother Hilda Carline, her uncles Gilbert Spencer and Richard Carline and her grandfather George Carline. Thus her art is put into context. Shown is her Self Portrait (1954). She looks a daunting young lady (CLICK).
