- Short biography
- A lifelong artist with a great love and appreciation of animals and wildlife, Eileen Soper was an intelligent, driven, and somewhat eccentric, character, who led a reclusive life at the very special house, (built by her father) in extensive grounds and where Eileen and her sister Eva continued to live until the end of their days. Just before they were moved to a Nursing Home, an incredible hoard of art by Eileen and her father George was uncovered, providing a formidable artistic legacy that will continue to be appreciated for decades to come.
