Greaves, Derrick
Greaves, Derrick (1927– ). British painter and graphic artist, born in Sheffield. After an apprenticeship with a signwriter, he studied at the Royal College of Art, 1948–52. In the 1950s he was a leading figure of the Kitchen Sink School, depicting dour subjects including views of his home town (Sheffield, City Art Gallery, Sheffield, 1953). In the 1960s he moved away from a descriptively realistic style to one bordering on abstraction. He has taught at several art schools and in 1983 he became head of printmaking at Norwich College of Art.
