Carel Weight

🔳Carel Weight (10 September 1908 – 13 August 1997) was an English painter.

He painted landscapes and portraits, but much of his work captured a mood of melancholia, evident in the mysterious presences in his ghost paintings set in the unassuming urban settings of west and south London most familiar to the artist. 

“…Concerned with such things as anger, love, hate, fear and loneliness… for me the acid test of a painting is: will the ordinary chap get anything out of this?”, he said.
