"Ivon Hitchens was born in London and studied at St. John's Wood School of Art and at the Royal Academy Schools. In 1940 he moved to West Sussex, where he was to spend the rest of his life. There, he was able to distance himself from artistic trends and immerse himself in nature, which was his greatest inspiration. Preferring to paint outdoors, Hitchens is known primarily for his atmospheric landscape paintings, which depict a mysterious and evocative countryside."
