Ginger is a naïve art artist. 14 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This artist painted quiet London and provincial streets in watercolour around 1940. Look at Munster Square off Euston Road or Pittville Lawn in Cheltenham—both catch the spare geometry of terraced houses and empty pavements. The brushwork is light, the colours muted, as if the war years had tuned every hue down a notch. Tap any of these street views to step into postcard-sized London before the bombs fell.
