Thomas Bowman Garvie (6 February 1859 – 5 January 1944) was a Northumbrian artist whose portraits include Thomas Burt, Lord Percy, Lord Armstrong,[1] George B Bainbridge, Fred B Fenwick and Sir William and Lady Grey.
He was a prolific painter of portraits and landscapes. He studied in London and Paris completing the Grand Tour in 1898. His work faithfully observed nature: landscapes were painted plein air and his portraits and figurative paintings reflect a naturalistic use of light and colour. Despite his orthodox outlook, he was at the time an extremely popular portraitist of the North East and there are several of his paintings in the Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle and Cragside (National Trust) in Northumberland.
