| 1936, Born Bridlington, Yorkshire and studied at Slade School of Fine Art 1959-61, Hull College of Art 1952-57. He lived in Cornwall 1962-4 and moved to East Anglia 1966.

Frank Beanland exhibited under the banner of the Porthleven Group from 1962 to 1964. He then embarked on an impressive exhibiting career, and received many commissions for screens and printed textiles for hospitals, churches and private homes.

He is revelling in the speed at which he can set down his ideas and in the freedom to experiment that no-cost paper encourages. |
