It is with great sadness that I inform you of the recent death of John Robinson. John joined the Norfolk and Norwich Art Circle in 1963 and so was one of our longest serving members. This earned him a Life Member status award. He had served on the Council and was a valued member of our community. Always willing to help he held our display boards and plinths in store ready for when we needed them. I best remember John’s wonderful wood sculptures. They had beautiful flowing lines and were ‘honest’ to their material. John always had a cheeky Norfolk risqué humour with him when we met. He would suck you in with his banter before you realised he had caught you. I found him great fun and enjoyed visiting him at his home in Rackheath with Richard and Jan Motley when we went to collect the plinths for our exhibitions. He was certainly a character to remember and I will do exactly that. R.I.P. John. Clive (Brookes) President NNAC
