The Campbells, Ted in particular, were very important to the artistic community that flourished in Saint John NB during the mid 20th Century. Ted was an influential teacher, who encouraged his very gifted student, Fred Ross, among many other young artists at the time. Ted’s studio was a focal point for the artistic community during this period. In the early 1970s he and his wife Rosamond, also a very fine painter, relocated to San Miguel in Mexico.
