Study of Convolvulus and Green Wheat
Like many women artists of her generation Helen Cordelia Angell did not receive a formal art training. She was schooled at home and learned painting and drawing from her older brother William Stephen Coleman (1829-1904) who had an art pottery studio based in South Kensington. Her sister was the pottery artist Rose Rebecca Coleman. When she was only 17 she had a watercolour exhibited at the Dudley Gallery in London.
