North East Ken Watts for Auction at Boldon
Local artist Mr Kenneth John William Watts was born in 1932
in Forest Hill, New Addington, London. He spent his national
service in Kenya staying in the army until the late 1950's when
he made his move to the North East. After moving to
Jarrow Kenneth Watts started capturing the street scenes of the
local area and created minutely detailed paintings of nearby
streets. His love of drawing developed at a very young age; he
briefly attended drawing classes at night school in his teens but
was mostly self-taught. He started to paint the fast-
changing townscapes of Jarrow and surrounding areas in the
early 1960's developing his technique and skills as he worked. In
the late 60’s and early 70’s Kenneth Watts had a deep
involvement in the Jarrow Art Group and was instrumental in
organising exhibitions.
He then went on to set up the Bede Gallery with Vince
Rea and painted a huge mural in Sunderland; as well as
having many major exhibitions, including London’s Prestigious
Serpentine Gallery.

In later years he attended Sunderland University fulfilling his
dream of obtaining a first-class Fine Arts degree which he
saw as recognition by the establishment. In 2014 in the middle
of his Master’s degree he became unwell, sadly passing away
before it was finished.
