Ronald Maddox was an accomplished and successful British artist, designer and illustrator.
Born in Purley, Surrey, he studied at St. Albans School of Art before serving with the Air Ministry Design Service. He completed his studies at Regent Street Polytechnic in London from 1949-51, and the London College of Printing.
From 1953 to 1962 Maddox worked as an art director for advertising agencies in London, then as a freelance artist illustrator and graphic designer. Between 1972 and 1989 Maddox worked extensively for the Post Office and the Royal Mail, designing stamps, stamp book covers, first day presentation packs, posters and charts. His stamps typically feature British architecture, rural life and the countryside. He also produced posters for British Rail.
Maddox was a prominent member of many professional societies and received many awards for his work as an artist and designer. Maddox excelled at architectural work, reproducing the textures and patterns of buildings, but he is perhaps best known for his topographical art works, which explore the shapes and design of landforms.
Maddox exhibited his original paintings in many mixed shows in London and regional galleries, including the Royal Academy, the Pastel Society, the Royal Society of British Arts and the Royal Watercolor Society. Today, examples of his work are in the collections of the Fry Gallery and the Tate. His work is also held in many prestigious private collections, having been acquired by HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, the Sultanate of Oman, Barclays Banks, the BBC, British Rail and the Post Office.
Maddox lived with his wife in Digswell, Welwyn, Hertfordshire. He died on 4 November 2018 at the age of 88.

This original watercolor painting by Ronald Maddox is of Glen Lyon in Scotland. Glen Lyon is situated in the Perth and Kinross region of Scotland. It is the longest enclosed glen in Scotland and runs for 34 miles from Lock Lyon in the west to the village of Fortingall in the east. It was also known as “An Crom Ghleann. Sir Walter Scott described Glen Lyon as the "longest, loneliest and loveliest glen in Scotland".
The images feature two winding paths running from the foreground deep into the glen, converging and traversing across the undulating terrain. There is also a stream, which flows around a copse of fir trees. The glen is wide and of an impressive scale. In the background a row of high mountains rise up to meet the horizon. The rolling countryside is mainly grassed, but with clumps of dark green fir trees, and occasional other deciduous trees. The overall palette is one of soft greens and blues and the sky is bright blue with fluffy white clouds. The overall image is mellow and very pleasing. Apart from the rough pathways there is no sign of human interaction with this wild and natural environment.
