'''Dod Procter''' {{Post-nominals|country=GBR|RA}} (born '''Doris Margaret Shaw'''; 1890 &ndash; 1972) was an early twentieth-century English artist, best known for Impressionistic landscapes and delicate "nearly sculptural studies of [https://beyondbloomsbury.substack.com/p/dod-procter-a-portrait-of-the-artist solitary female subjects."] Her sensual portrait, ''Morning,'' of a fisherman's daughter in Newlyn, caused a sensation. It was bought for the public by the ''[Daily Mail](/source/Daily_Mail)'' in 1927.<ref name=tate/>

Dod was married to the artist [Ernest Procter](/source/Ernest_Procter).<ref>{{cite ODNB|author1=Judith Collins|title=Procter [née Shaw], Doris Margaret [Dod] (1890–1972)|url=http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/40917|year=2004|doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/40917|accessdate=3 April 2015}} (Subscription needed)</ref><ref name="CA-Dod" /> They attended art schools in England and in Paris together, where they were both influenced by [Impressionism](/source/Impressionism) and the [Post-Impressionism](/source/Post-Impressionism) movements. They also worked together at times, sometimes sharing commissions and other times showing their work together in exhibitions. 

Procter was a lifelong artist. After Ernest's untimely death in 1935, she travelled to the United States, Canada, Jamaica and Africa. She died in 1972 and is buried next to her husband at [St Hilary Church, Cornwall](/source/St_Hilary_Church%2C_Cornwall).<ref name="CA-Dod" /><ref name="CA-Ernest" /> She was a member of several artists organisations, such as the [Newlyn School](/source/Newlyn_School) and became President of [St Ives Society of Artists](/source/St_Ives_Society_of_Artists) (STISA) in 1966. Her work was exhibited at the [Royal Academy](/source/Royal_Academy_of_Arts) on many occasions.

==Biography==
===Early life and education===
Doris "Dod" Shaw was born in [Hampstead](/source/Hampstead), London in 1890. Her father was a ship's doctor and her mother was a former art student who had studied at the [Slade School of Fine Art](/source/Slade_School_of_Fine_Art).<ref name="CFox">{{cite book|author=Caroline Fox|publisher=Newlyn Orion|year=1985|title=Painting in Newlyn 1900-1930|isbn=0950657948}}</ref> The family moved to [Tavistock](/source/Tavistock) in Devon, but after the death of her husband, Dod's mother moved the family to [Newlyn](/source/Newlyn) in 1907.<ref name="CFox"/> There, at the age of 15, Dod enrolled in the School of Painting run by [Elizabeth Forbes](/source/Elizabeth_Forbes_(artist)) and [Stanhope Forbes](/source/Stanhope_Forbes). The Shaws stayed with two other Forbes students, Dod's cousin Cicely Jesse and another woman artist, Tennyson Jesse, in a large townhouse known as Myrtle Cottage. At Forbes, Dod met her future husband [Ernest Procter](/source/Ernest_Procter); they were considered Forbes' star pupils.<ref name=MJP>{{cite web |author=|url=https://dl.lib.brown.edu/mjp/render.php?view=mjp_object&id=mjp.2005.02.0637 |title=The Modernists Journal Project, Ernest Procter|date=|accessdate=3 October 2012|work=Brown University}}</ref><ref name=Penlee-Ernest>{{cite web|author=|url=http://www.penleehouse.org.uk/artists/ernest-procter.html|title=Ernest Procter|date=|accessdate=3 October 2012|work=Penlee House Gallery and Museum|archive-date=2 September 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120902045813/http://www.penleehouse.org.uk/artists/ernest-procter.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> In Newlyn, Dod met [Laura Knight](/source/Laura_Knight), who became a lifelong friend and a considerable influence on her career.<ref name="CFox"/>

In 1910 Dod and her mother went to Paris where Dod, alongside Ernest Procter, studied at the [Atelier Colarossi](/source/Acad%C3%A9mie_Colarossi). Dod and Ernest were both influenced by [Impressionism](/source/Impressionism) and [Post-Impressionism](/source/Post-Impressionism) and the artists that they met in France, such as [Pierre-Auguste Renoir](/source/Pierre-Auguste_Renoir) and [Paul Cézanne](/source/Paul_C%C3%A9zanne). The couple married in 1912 at the church in [Paul](/source/Paul%2C_Cornwall) in Cornwall and a year later their son Bill was born.<ref name=MJP/><ref name=CA-Ernest>{{cite web |author=|url=http://cornwallartists.org/cornwall-artists/ernest-procter|title=Ernest Procter|date=|accessdate=2 October 2012|work=Cornwall Artists Index}}</ref> The family established a home at [North Corner](/source/North_Corner%2C_Cornwall) in Cornwall.<ref name="CFox"/> Also in 1913, Dod Procter first exhibited at the Royal Academy of Art.<ref name=CA-Dod>{{cite web |author=|url=http://cornwallartists.org/cornwall-artists/dod-procter |title=Dod Procter|date=|accessdate=3 October 2012|work=Cornwall Artists Index}}</ref>

During [World War I](/source/World_War_I) Ernest served in France working with a [Friends' Ambulance Unit](/source/Friends'_Ambulance_Unit) detachment.<ref name=CA-Ernest/> The regular letters between the couple show Dod to be depressed at his absence as well as bored and short of money.<ref name="CFox"/> After the war, the couple settled in Newlyn and this was the Procters' home for most of their working lives.<ref name=tate/>

===1920s===
In 1920 Dod and Ernest Procter were commissioned to decorate the Kokine Palace in [Rangoon](/source/Rangoon) by a Chinese millionaire, Ching Tsong.<ref name=CA-Dod/><ref name=CA-Ernest/> The commission took a year and required them working with Burmese, Indian and Chinese craftsmen often painting murals at considerable heights within the palace.<ref name="CFox"/> However Ching Tsong was unimpressed with their work and refused to pay them their agreed fees or provide accommodation so the Procters painted portraits of local people and members of the British colonial administration for an income.<ref name="CWallace">{{cite book|author=Catherine Wallace|publisher=truran|year=2002|title=Under the Open Sky - The Paintings of the Newlyn and Lamorna Artists 1880-1940 in the Public Collections of Cornwall and Plymouth|isbn=978-185022-168-5}}</ref> The Procters also created designs for etched crystal.<ref name=CA-Dod/>

When she returned to England, Dod Procter began to focus on painting portraits, usually of young women.<ref name="CFox"/> Throughout the 1920s Dod Procter continued to paint single female figures, sometimes nude, others in softly draped clothes.<ref>{{cite web|author=|title=Dod Procter|url=http://www.penleehouse.org.uk/artists/dod-procter|website=Penlee House Gallery and Museum|publisher=Penlee House Gallery and Museum Penzance Cornwall|accessdate=6 March 2017|archive-date=1 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190401175932/https://www.penleehouse.org.uk/artists/dod-procter|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://artuk.org/discover/stories/dod-procter-from-newlyn-to-the-world |title=Dod Procter: From Newlyn to the world|author=Samuel Love|date= 7 August 2019|website=[Art UK](/source/Art_UK)|accessdate=28 May 2020}}</ref> From around 1922, she painted a series of simplified, monumental images of young women of her acquaintance.<ref name=tate>{{cite web|author=|url=http://www.tate.org.uk/servlet/ViewWork?cgroupid=999999961&workid=12241&searchid=10053 |title=Catalogue entry, ''Morning'' (1926)|publisher=[Tate](/source/Tate)|accessdate=16 September 2009}}</ref><ref name="CLloyd">{{cite book|author=Christopher Lloyd |publisher=Themes & Hudson|year=2011|title=In Search of a Masterpiece.

When ''Morning'' was displayed at the 1927 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, it was voted Picture of the Year and bought by the ''[Daily Mail](/source/Daily_Mail)'' for the [Tate](/source/Tate) Gallery, where it now hangs.<ref>{{cite book|title=Houghton Mifflin Dictionary of Biography|year=2003|publisher=Houghton Mifflin Harcourt|isbn=978-0618252107|page=1241}}</ref><ref name="CHiggins">{{cite web |author=Charlotte Higgins|url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2016/oct/21/waking-the-gods-how-the-classical-world-cast-its-spell-over-british-art|title=Waking the gods: how the classical world cast its spell over British art|date=21 October 2016|accessdate=12 December 2017|work=The Guardian}}</ref> Procter sold the work for £300, but could have achieved ten times that amount.<ref name="koenig">Rhoda Koenig.

Both public and critics responded to ''Morning'', praising its "sensuous but sombre style" which evoked the west Cornish "silver light".<ref name=koenig/> [Frank Rutter](/source/Frank_Rutter), art critic of ''[The Sunday Times](/source/The_Sunday_Times)'', said in 1927 that ''Morning'' was "a new vision of the human figure which amounts to the invention of a twentieth century style in portraiture"<ref>Averil King.

As well as Cissie Barnes other women who modelled for Procter included the artist [Midge Bruford](/source/Marjorie_Frances_Bruford) and also [Eileen Mayo](/source/Eileen_Mayo), who had come to Newlyn to model for Laura Knight and became an artist in her own right.<ref name="Sothebys">{{cite web |author=|url=http://www.sothebys.com/en/auctions/ecatalogue/2014/british-irish-art-l14133/lot.56.html |title=Dod Procter, RA ''Midge Bruford, The Model''|year=2014|accessdate=12 December 2017|work=Sotheby's}}</ref><ref name="Orchard">{{cite web |author=|url=http://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/procter-the-orchard-n05325|title=Display caption, ''The Orchard''|date= August 2004|accessdate=19 December 2017|work=Tate}}</ref>

===1930s and after===
In the 1930s Procter's style of painting changed completely. Works such as ''The Orchard'' (1934), ''Sheila Among the Ferns'' (1935) and ''Kitchen at Myrtle Cottage'' (1935) display the meticulous finish and lighting of her earlier work but without her previous hard lines and solidly delineated bodies of colour.<ref name="CFox"/><ref name="Orchard"/><ref name="Kitchen">{{cite web |author=|url=http://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/procter-kitchen-at-myrtle-cottage-n04817|title=Display caption, ''The Kitchen at Myrtle Cottage''|date=|accessdate=19 December 2017|work=Tate}}</ref> A floral design by Procter was among the winning entries in the 1933 ''Famous Artists'' competition run by [Cadbury](/source/Cadbury)'s for a series of chocolate box designs and which were displayed at the Leicester Galleries in London.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://artuk.org/discover/stories/luxury-assortment-the-british-artists-behind-cadburys-chocolate-boxes |title=Luxury assortment: the British artists behind Cadbury's chocolate boxes|date=10 April 2020|author=Lucy Ellis |website=Art UK |access-date=22 July 2022}}</ref> Ernest Procter died unexpectedly while travelling in 1935. The couple had often staged joint exhibitions at the Leicester Galleries and Dod continued to do so after Ernest's death.<ref name="CFox"/>

In 1938, Procter decided to move to [Zennor](/source/Zennor), near her friend, the artist [Alethea Garstin](/source/Alethea_Garstin).<ref name=CA-Dod/> The subjects of her pictures were largely portraits and flowers.<ref>Averil King (2005), ''Newlyn Flowers: The Floral Works of Dod Procter, RA.'' Philip Wilson Publishers, {{ISBN|0-85667-604-7}}</ref> Garstin's influence was apparent in Procter's work in the latter part of her career. She became a full member of the Royal Academy in 1942. 

In the early 1940s Procter illustrated four children's books written by [Clare Collas](/source/Clare_Collas): ''Four’s Company: a children's fantasy'' (London: Peter Davies, 1942), ''The Flying Village: an improbable story'' (London, 1943), ''The Blue-Coated Heron: an adventurous story'' (London: Peter Davies, 1944) and ''Penny for the Guy'' (London, 1945). 

Procter visited [Tenerife](/source/Tenerife) in 1938 and again, with her friend, the artist [Jeanne du Maurier](/source/Jeanne_du_Maurier), in 1946.<ref name="CFox"/> In 1948, she visited [Basutoland](/source/Basutoland) and in 1964 went to [Tanganyika](/source/Tanganyika_(1961%E2%80%931964)).<ref name="CFox"/> During the 1950s Procter spent some time in Jamaica, with Garstin, where she mainly painted portraits of children.<ref name=CA-Dod/>

During her lifetime and after her death her work fell out of favour.<ref>{{cite book|author= Alison James|year= 2007|title= A Singular Vision: Dod Procter 1890-1972|publisher= Sansom & Company Ltd|ISBN=1-904537-78-2}}</ref> But in the 21st century, she was featured in several gallery exhibitions and her works are collected in British museums, including the [Tate](/source/Tate). Photographs of Procter are in the collection of [National Portrait Gallery, London](/source/National_Portrait_Gallery%2C_London).<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/person/mp16178/doris-margaret-dod-procter-nee-shaw |title=Dod Prcter|website=National Portrait Gallery|access-date=30 April 2024}}</ref>
