Audrey Dallas-Simpson (1925-1984) – one of the most successful commercial artists of the 1960s.

She achieved her phenomenal success mainly through sales of prints of her work which, at the height of her fame, literally sold in their millions, rivalling sales of other popular print artists of the period.

Mostly she signed her work Dallas-Simpson, but she also painted under a number of pseudonyms including Emma Louise, Audrey, and Kelita with a subtle change of style in the painting but with the same subject matter.

Originally from London, in the mid 1960s, Audrey relocated to Lancing, West Sussex – To live by the sea with her husband. The two worked as a team, with her husband helping to prime her canvases.

Her images of big-eyed urchin children remain fresh and instantly recognisable.
