Joash Woodrow: PORTRAITS

Joash Woodrow
PORTRAITS

Following on from the cataloguing of the Joash Woodrow Collection, this book provides an initial survey of the artists portraits. The book contains an essay by the writer and musician Danny Padmore, who sat as a model for Joash while a student at Leeds University; recalling his heady days in Leeds, being taught by  Quentin Bell, and sharing a flat with the poet John Silkin. Memories of spotting T.S.Eliot ‘making his way gingerly down the Otley Road one fine day’ and of being invited by his good friend Paul Woodrow to sit for his older brother Joash.

‘I had felt some nervous apprehension. He was about to take something away from me; perhaps reveal something about myself. However his calm body language, polite and respectful soft-spoken manner, and the slightly shy, gentle gaze of his eyes, proved reassuring.

Behind the canvas, with brushes in hand, Joash seemed to me to take on a new kind of authority. As the session wore on he slowly appeared to me as somehow more substantial, with the controlled intensity of his painterly gaze, and the self-assured manner in which he applied paint to the canvas. Few words were spoken. It was as if nothing should interrupt the tranquility of the sitting and the continuity of his vision.’

Excerpt from Danny Padmore's essay 'A Personal Recollection',written in 2004.
