Description: “The Clouds and Reflections” is an original impressionistic painting by Fred Cuming RA. This particular painting a part of BBC Expressions’s private collection since 1995.

About Fred Cuming RA:  Cuming was born in London of English in 1930, Scottish and Irish ancestry. He received his art education at Sidcup School of Art (1945–9) and, after National Service, at the Royal College of Art. He was awarded the Abbey Minor Travelling Scholarship to visit Italy. In 1964, he was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy (ARA), and a Royal Academician (RA) in 1974. He is also a member of the New English Art Club.

As well as continuing to paint Italian scenes, including Venice, he still devotes much time to the landscape of the Southern English coastline, including Hastings and Rye. His art has an impressionist quality that captures “the fleeting impressions of his surroundings.”^[2] He first encountered such landscapes as a child evacuee during the Blitz. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_Cuming_(artist).
