My father, John Wormell, who has died aged 97, was a painter and senior lecturer at Hornsey College of Art. He shunned the limelight, focused on his artwork, and retired early to pursue his own highly individualistic paintings inspired by landscapes from his youth.
Despite teaching at Hornsey College of Art for decades and becoming head of painting, John Wormell's personal artistic progression was somewhat hindered by the pressures of teaching and raising nine children. However, upon retiring to Scotland, his inspiration reignited, leading to a remarkable late-career artistic output.
