To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, HRH The Prince of Wales, patron of the Battle of Britain Fighter Association, commissioned the series of drawings by alumni and faculty of the Royal Drawing School.
Marcus Cornish gained a first class honours degree in Sculpture from Camberwell School of Art followed by an MA from the Royal College of Art. In 1993 Marcus Cornish was elected a member of the Royal Society of British Sculptors. Cornish won a scholarship to India to study the work of Ayanar Potter Priests and Henry Moore scholarships to pursue ceramic art. He was artist-in-residence at the Museum of London in 2005 – 2006 and at an Ibstock brick factory for a year. He was also invited to be official tour artist on a diplomatic tour to Eastern Europe with HRH The Prince of Wales and as tour artist with the British Army in Kosovo. Cornish’s work has been recognised in a number of awards both nationally and internationally and covered in The Times, Independent and Sculpture Magazines.
