This catalogue is the first attempt to catalogue the artist's work.
As such, it is known to be incomplete. If you have some of her work, or know of some, then please contact me.
She worked mostly in pastels, but also produced many fine oils and watercolours. It is possible that this collection does not reflect the balance of the formats - she may have sold or given away more oils or watercolours.
Names assigned to the paintings are assigned with the following priority:
"Title" - quoted text indicates a title assigned by the artist, location or person name, general description. I have given each one a unique identifier of the form GMT_###. At some point I may add artwork from her mother or other close relatives, they would have a different prefix - eg ASR (for her mother, Annie Salter Redmayne).

Medium: in most cases the medium used is obvious - oil vs watercolour vs pastel - but less so in some cases where I no longer have access to the original art. Usually oils is easy to detect in the photographs, but for some pastels may have been misidentified as watercolour.
Colour fidelity: I have attempted to match the colour and tone of these photographic reproductions as closely as possible. However, there are many cases where I do not have access to the originals to make a visual comparison. In such cases I have made the best match I can - either from memory or basic alignment with her known style.
Preservation: some paintings show signs of damage - particularly the pastels. One or two of the oils have undergone (expensive) restoration, either before or after they were photographed.
Coming in 2025 - additional artwork, reloading of existing content at a higher resolution, correction of colours (where needed). In preparation for all this there may be some changes to the naming and presentation in this gallery.
