Kyffin Williams

(Welsh, 1918–2006)

Sir Kyffin Williams was a Welsh painter best known for his depictions of the Welsh countryside, shepherds and their sheepdogs, livestock, and small villages. Williams’ paintings are primarily made with impasto palette knife marks and few brushstrokes, employing a limited palette consisting of gray and subtle greens that emanate the color found in the rocks and foliage of Wales. Born on May 9, 1918 in Llangefni, United Kingdom, he went on to study at the Slade School of Fine Art in London, also spending time painting in the Welsh settlement of Y Wladfa in Patagonia, Argentina in 1968, thanks to the Winston Churchill Fellowship. Today, Williams’ works are in the collections of the National Library of Wales, the Government Art Collection in the United Kingdom, and the National Museum of Wales. The artist died on September 1, 2006 in Anglesey, United Kingdom.
