- Biography synopsis
- When Gertrude E. Spurr Cutts arrived in Toronto in 1890 to join her family, she was already an accomplished artist, having traveled to Belgium and Holland to sketch, and having exhibited with the Royal Society of British Artists and the Society of Women Artists. She was an active presence in the Toronto art scene, opening her own studio and acting as corresponding secretary for the Toronto Art Students' League in 1896. Around 1900, she went to Woodstock, New York for the summer, to study at the Art Students' League of New York under George Bridgman, Birge Harrison, and John F. Carlsen. Following her marriage to William Cutts, a fellow artist, in 1909, they shared a studio in Toronto and traveled and painted together in Southern Ontario, Quebec, and England and Wales. Returning to England in 1909, they lived and worked at St.Ives, Cornwall for three years (1909-12) before returning to Toronto for another three years (1912-15) and finally settling in Port Perry, Ontario where Cutts died at the age of 83. Quite versatile in both medium and subject matter, she worked in oils, watercolours and pen and ink, and painted landscapes, river scenes, seascapes, coastal genre, rural scenes, floral studies and the occasional still life, though she is best known for her picturesque rural landscapes, reminiscent of John Constable. She exhibited with the Ontario Society of Artists, the Art Association of Montreal, the Canadian National Exhibition, the Royal Canadian Academy and also in the United States. Her works can be found in several collections, including the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), the Art Gallery of Ontario (Toronto), the Art Gallery of Hamilton, the Ontario Government Collection (Queen's Park, Toronto), the Morden Neilson Collection (Toronto), and the Robert McLaughlin Gallery (Oshawa).
