ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
John Falconar Slater (1857 - 1937)
John Falconer Slater was a Northumbrian artist who exhibited
prolifically in his own area. Initially, however, he worked as a
bookeeper for his father's corn mill and then ran a store in the diamond
fields of South Africa before turning to art as a career. He was a
member of the Bewick Club and President of the North East Art Club,
based in Whitley Bay, and also a member of the Cullercoats Colony. He
could be one of the best Northern Impressionist artists, and was expert
at depicting the many moods of the North Sea. The last twelve years of
his life were spent in Cullercoats.
Exhibited: L. 5, M. 1, R.A. 22 and widely on Tyneside.
