Born in Lincolnshire, John Maltby studied sculpture at Leicester and at Goldsmiths’ College, London. He taught painting for two and half years before working with David Leach at Bovey Tracey (1962-64). In 1964 he started his own workshop at Stoneshill, near Credition, Devon.
"The figures themselves, mostly queens, kings and angels, seem to represent a pure and ideal world and radiate great dignity... They are imbued with a cautious love of life.. This makes Maltby's art timeless, deeply human and at the same time comforting. "
