Dorothy Lightfoot

A benefactor, who recognised Dorothy's drawing talent, enabled her to train at the Central School of Art in London, where her teachers included William Roberts (1895-1980), Noel Rooke (1881-1953) and Clarke Hutton (1898-1984). She contributed to the Second World War effort by supervising groups of Land Army girls after which she moved to Suffolk and worked for the Post Office as a draughtsman and designer. At this time, when her painting output was at its height, she held many exhibitions in Ipswich with the landscape and architecture of Suffolk as her inspiration.
