Dunn, John Selwyn
(1895-1978) John Selwyn Dunn was born on 17 March 1895 and died on 11 December 1978 aged 83 years. He was an artist who worked in many different media, and he was a great follower and admirer of William Morris and the pre-Raphaelites. He loved painting in oils and was very interested in sailing ships and made models. He also painted sometimes in watercolours. He painted china, plates and jugs etc, which he fired in his own kiln. Wood carving was a great interest and he also printed woodcuts from the blocks he cut. He did illuminated manuscripts and petit-point embroidery for which he had a frame. He passionately loved and studied trees and was a member of the Men of the Trees. In the 1930s he had a printing press, and for several years printed a magazine on this in collaboration with two friends, entitled 'The Golden Bowl', an occasional magazine devoted to the restoration of human values. Much of his work was done at this studio at 100 Lion Lane, Haslemere and the screen at Shottermill Church was painted by him. For many years he had a shop in Tunsgate, Guildford called 'Things of Beauty and Utility' (now the London Camera Exchange), which provided an outlet for his work.
