Painting of women by trees,Arnold Turtle, c.1940(Amer). Painting is 15.5" x 19.5" in a frame 21" x 25".///////////////////////////////////////////////////Turtle was born in Birmingham, England. As a young man, Turtle was intensely interested in musical composition, and he financed his studies in music by selling his paintings. He soon realized that musical composition did not assure recognition or financial reward, so he entered the world of commerce. In 1922, he joined his relatives in the United States, where he worked as an accountant. Turtle found that he could not ignore his growing artistic urge, and he decided to study fine art, attending facilities that offered weekend and night courses at the Art Institute of Chicago and The Chicago Fine Arts .
