Biography

Ron Meadows.

Born in Melbourne in 1913, Ron Meadows studied at the National Gallery School between 1929 and 1933. In 1934 he was a student at the Melbourne Technical College under Napier Waller. He visited the Wallers regularly at their home during the early 1930s and his linocuts clearly show Christian’s influence. A book of his prints was to be the third production of her Golden Arrow Press. He later trained as an architect and settled in Sydney.
