At Cambridge, where he studied maths, he became a member of the Fine Art Society and frequented the Fitzwilliam Museum. Then in 1885 he emigrated to New South Wales to teach at Katoomba College. There he met fellow British émigrés and college staff Phil May (1864-1903) and Richard Godfrey Rivers (1858-1925). May combined his teaching with working as a cartoonist and illustrator for The Sydney Bulletin. While Godfrey Rivers was a recent graduate of the Slade School of Art in London. Instructed by both artists, Blamire Young established his own studio, which became a magnet for other aspiring talent including Theodore Fink (1855-1942) the influential publisher and politician. But following a catastrophic fire which destroyed much of his work in 1893, Young returned to England where he studied with Hubert von Herkomer and associated with the Beggarstaff Brothers, James Pryde and William Nicholson, their fluid manner clearly evident in the present lot and lot 32. Following his marriage in 1895 he returned to Australia, established a co-operative producing Art Nouveau style posters and turned to writing, publishing two one-act dramas: Art for Arts Sake which played at the Melbourne Repertory Theatre in 1911 and Children's Bread published in 1912. That same year he departed with his family once more for Europe, travelling via Spain and arriving in England in 1914. During the following decade he served in the First World War, was elected to the membership of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and the Royal Society of British Artists, exhibited at the Royal Academy and the Royal Scottish Academy, showed at the Chester Gallery and had a solo exhibition at the Fine Art Society on New Bond Street before finally returning to Australia in 1923. In Australia Blamire Young's work is in the art galleries of Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Geelong and in the collections of Plymouth Art Gallery and Watford Museum in the UK.
