About The Artist |
|
Sadly Noel Haring passed
away in August 2008. As a memory of his talent,
his excellent work (both original paintings and
limited edition fine art prints), continue to be

email address above. |
|
Having graduated in Design from The Royal College
of Art in 1957, Noël Haring started his own
industrial and graphic design business. He saw a
turning point in his artistic career when a
friend introduced him to working in watercolour. |
|
Noël Haring has exhibited at The Royal
Watercolour Society Summer Exhibition since 1992
and all major exhibitions at the Mall Galleries
(Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour,
Royal Society of Portrait, Royal Society of
Marine) including the most prestigious one: The
Singer & Friedlander /Sunday Times Watercolour
Competition. |
|
In 1997, HRH The Prince of Wales selected all
the paintings Noël submitted for The Discerning
Eye Exhibition. |
|
In 2000 Noël Haring was a prize winner at the
Singer & Friedlander/ Sunday Times competition,
with his picture “Classic Car in Havana”. His
meticulously observed watercolour of a
dilapidated colonial-style building bathed in
brilliant sunlight, with a well-preserved old
banger parked on a road outside, is a
considerable achievement, not least because it
gives not a hint of how complicated it was to
get it to look natural” wrote Dr Frank Whitford
Art Editor of Sunday Times. |
|
In November 2005, a new Prize Exhibition
organised by the Lynn Foundation together with
the Painter-Stainers Company gave Noël
opportunity to once again show his talent. His
picture “Morning in Brighton” was one of the 12
selected watercolours among the 53 works of mix
media accepted out of more than 700 pictures
submitted. |

|
For a number of years, until its closure, Noël
Haring was regularly exhibiting at The Gallery in
Virginia Water where he held, in 2002, a very
successful One Man Show about his work on Havana. |
