James Lawson Balfour (1870-1966) Balfour began his professional career in Ireland as a painter of horses, dogs and babies. He was living in Bangor, County Down, when he exhibited 'Sunday Morning' at the Royal academy of Arts in 1899. In 1900 he went to New Zealand and at Christchurch on April 29, 1904, married Eva Hulston. They moved to Sydney, Australia in 1912 and became a noted portrait painter. He was commissioned to paint prominent citizens such as Governor Sir Dudley de Chair, Sir Normand Maclaurin, Sir Charles Mackellar and many others. Balfour gave private lessons for many years and in 1922-24 directed the Balfour Art School, assisted by Reginald Payten. In 1919-31 Balfour was an exhibiting councilor of the Royal Art Society of New South Wales; he had become a fellow in 1922 when the society was reconstituted. In 1932 he was elected to the committee of the Manly Art Gallery and Historical Collection and was vice-patron in 1955-66.
