James Lawrence Isherwood was born and lived in Wigan, Lancashire, where he ran The Isherwood Gallery.
He travelled extensively and had over 200 shows, including colleges at Oxford and Cambridge Universities.
He painted a number of celebrities including the singer, Gracie Fields, round the world yachtsman, Sir
Francis Chichester and Lord and Lady Weymouth. Isherwood was an eccentric, controversial character whose
work was uneven and often garish. But he could also produce telling images, as seen when a large body of
his work was included in The Northern Art Show at the Mall Galleries in 1994. Isherwood is one of a number
of Northern Artists who are now being re-discovered. He has a strong following in the North of England
and his prices are increasing every year
