 John at CambridgeDrawing of JohnJohn 

This website shows the paintings, watercolours, and poems of John Levinson (1949-1979).  John went to Bedales School and subequently studied architecture at Kings College, Cambridge.  He went on to St Martins School of Art, and during his twenties created a significant body of oils and watercolours. He also wrote poems, plays and a novel A Suitcase in the Hills, published privately after his death.  John committed suicide in 1979, at the age of thirty.  He remains very much missed by his many friends and his family.

 

The website is intended to provide an archive of John's work, intended mainly for those who knew John and in memory of his mother Mary Levinson who died in 2010.  Material is being added to the site, from the many drawings and paintings that John left.
