Oliver Kilbourn (right), a former coal face worker at Ellington Colliery is the sole surviving founder member of what became known as the Ashington group of painters. The future of nearly 100 paintings was uncertain due to the advancing ages of the remaining members. The coal board has agreed to become custodians of the paintings. Oliver and six other members of the group, were the chief guests when Mr Humphrey Watson, area director of the Coal Board, officially opened an exhibition of the paintings at Graham House, Newcastle. Picured, Oliver (right) joins Mr Watson in admiring one of his works " The Gold Press". October 1975
