H. Edward Winter

Harold Edward Winter (October 14, 1908 – July 22, 1976) was an American artist who worked primarily in enamels. Known also as H. Edward Winter and Edward Winter, he wrote several books on enameling and produced enamel murals for churches and the Section of Painting and Sculpture.

Biography Harold Edward Winter was born in Pasadena, California, to John Edward Winter and Lila (Deveny) Winter. He studied art in Vienna, and went on to teach at the Cleveland Institute of Art (1935–37) and Old White Art Colony in West Virginia.

Winter created abstract compositions with occasional botanical or biomorphic elements. He employed copper, steel, silver, or aluminum as his substrate and sometimes used foil inlays in addition to the enamel colors. The works ranged from household tableware to large wall plaques. In the 1950s, Thelma started working in enamel as well, and the pair worked both independently and collaboratively on various projects.
