Watercolour paintings by Artist unknown

We are grateful to Kev Hearn of Dorset who discovered some albums in an antique shop containing watercolours and pastel paintings, some of which bear Shrivenham as the subject. They are now in our possession and it's clear that the artist was staying in Shrivenham circa 1947, possibly in the military houses associated with the Military College. There are also paintings from visits to Austria and Cornwall. If you can identify who the artist might be, please contact us
