| Much influenced by the modernist painting of Arthur Dove, Helen Torr became a painter of abstract shapes suggesting landscape, still life, and nature. In 1913, she married cartoonist Clive Weed. She met Dove in 1919, and his influence on her artwork as well as her personal life began. In 1932, she married Dove but set aside her career five years later to take care of him when he suffered a heart attack. Ironically the man who had inspired her signature work was responsible for its curtailment.(showing 500 of 1939 characters). |
