1.1 Woody Ken Woodward – The Bearded Artist of Eltham:
"Woody" Woodward, who died aged 79, had a passion for art that never wavered. He carried a miniature sketchbook to record new ideas, translating them into humorous, irreverent and inventive works.
Around the time of his amicable separation from Brick in 1977, Woody went into art education, teaching at secondary schools in south-east London. Colleagues described him as a well-loved art teacher, while others acknowledged him as a mentor and inspiration. In 1979, he met a fellow teacher, Sandra Burrows, who became his companion over the last three decades.
On his retirement at 65, Woody signed up for an MA course in printmaking at Camberwell College of Art, where he found a new circle of friends. His assemblages made him an avid collector of bric-a-brac and, in recent years, his house came to resemble a gigantic boxed assemblage, which was perhaps the intention.
In his final months, he was obliged to paint in the only space available - the loft. He produced a prodigious series of brightly coloured, cheerful and exuberant abstracts, an apt finale to a lifetime of artistic exploration and endeavour.

1.2 Brian Corlett
The artist-pedagogue Brian C. left his works scattered through the minds of the boys he taught. Over 35 years of teaching art, he kept secret from them his wartime exploits, whose only outward sign was a painful limp caused by a life-threatening groin injury.
His work remains, a rarity amongst the clean fresh pages of stacked papers.
