About Ted
Ted Hiscock, MB, ChB Birmingham 1971.
Born in 1946, Wellington, Somerset. Married to Kate, father
to 3 sons. Successful and experienced GP, school friend of
the actor David Suchet, discovered and introduced into the
commercial art world by Lord & Lady Corbett and elected Chairman
of the Friends of Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery, a post he
held between 2005 to 2007, when unfortunately, he was forced to
resign through the pressure of work.
Ted was given artistic grounding by his father, Tom which was
then refined by his well-known cousin Tony Griffin, whilst still
at school. He is now an accomplished artist in oils, charcoal
and water colour in his own right. A professional with amazing
talent, and a great friend to many.
Ted has spent over 3 decades steeped in medicine in
Birmingham as student and professional. The magnificent artistry
of the human frame has never ceased to amaze, happily now, Ted
is able to expand and develop in his artistic work. Ted received
expert tuition from David Mynett, arguably among the best
contemporary impressionists in Great Britain, at the Can Xenet
School of Art in Majorca. In 2006, he went on a short
clay-modelling course with Elisabeth Hadley in Torquay, which
was his first experience with three dimensional art.
Ted has regularly donated his art up for charitable auctions
and during his years as Chairman of the Friends of Birmingham
Museums and Art Gallery, was keen to introduce art to the young
of the city. It was during his time as Chairman that he hosted
the Duke of Gloucester during a commemorative celebration to
mark 75 years of the Friends organisation.
