Rose Hilton at 80

Rose Hilton née Phipps, (15 August 1931 – 19 March 2019)
Rose Hilton, who has died aged 87, was the last survivor from the glory days of modern art in Cornwall – the partner of Roger Hilton and a scintillating painter in her own right.
She tackled a tricky life with indomitable joy.

Rose Hilton: Look who's painting now | Life and style | The Guardian: "Rose Hilton's strict Christian parents weren't keen on her becoming an artist. But the person who actually stopped her painting was her husband – a prominent artist himself. Now nearly 80, she has finally answered her calling"
"The artist Rose Hilton: is in her 80th year and has an exhibition opening at the end of this month at Messum’s Gallery in London."
