Collection
Douglas J. McLeod Trees
Douglas McLeod studied at the Canterbury College School of Art during the 1920s alongside Alfred Cook, James Cook, Rita Angus, Evelyn Page and Olivia Spencer Bower. Unlike his contemporaries, however, after completing his studies Douglas joined an advertising firm where he excelled as a poster designer. He continued making art, including linocuts, and regularly exhibited with the Canterbury Society of Arts during the 1930s.
