Dorothy EVERARD

Mrs Dorothy EVERARD

Married to the artist C S EVERARD, she lived with her husband at 3 The Warren, St Ives and worked from the Dragon Studio in Norway Lane. She specialised in portraiture, and Jimmy Limpotts (a well-known St Ives character) was one of her subjects (1937).

A correspondent (2013) describes a St Ives watercolour by Everard which she has inherited of a local harbour scene with soldiers, and families with children milling around, dated 1947.

A further correspondent (2023) has told us that she has in her possession a painting of her mother by Dorothy Everard, which was done in Radlett, Herts, during World War II.
