Charles Trevor Garland was born in London in 1855. He had been interested in art most of his life and was very skilled. Garland had taught himself how to do all things he could regarding art. His art is widely know to have been exhibited at the Royal Academy, Suffolk Street, and the New-Water Colour Society in London.
His style is that of Victorian, he shows the bonds between people and emotions and the actions that they are doing at the time. His paintings showed love, lust and beauty. He used darker colors and brighter colors to set the moods and was very skilled in adding the right color to faces that showed the moods of the person.
Charles Trevor Garland was most famous for his scenes that include women and children. His painting often showed the everyday life and emotion of children and women. Including everyday scenes like children with dogs, women holding their babies, and young girls playing. He also was very skilled at narrative, portraits, landscape, still life, animals, and architecture.
His work showed the nature and the social divides like most Victorian arts do. His paintings show the different lifestyles of people by differentiating the social classes by the backgrounds and the clothing the people were wearing,
His art was definitely accepted a little during his life, his work was often shown places, but he was not a renowned artist that everyone new about. Even today there is not much information regarding Charles Trevor Garland and his pieces. You can see some people online saying that they have original pieces of his, but we will never know.
I personally think that he deserved a lot more recognition than he has received. I love how his paintings show the life of these people and the things they did. My personal favorite is his painting of a young girl in a dress holding flowers and a letter. I think the painting shows the simplicity and the way of life back then.

I create art because it makes me feel happy. When creating this piece it was very fun to research different artists and to see different styles that I could recreate. This photo makes you think because of the way the child is holding different objects and is in a house that seems to have a lot of money.
When I created this piece I knew I had to make it seem more modern because the point of this piece is to show the wealth of different social classes and that would not be relevant to today's society if she was still holding a letter and flowers. So instead I had her hold a phone and a laptop.
I like this photo because it really makes you think about what the photos represent in both time periods. I think it would be cool to make a piece that had the same time period but showed the lower class and to remake that. Overall I think this was a very cool project and was very fun to do.
