Theodorus (Theo) Bitter (The Hague, December 16, 1916 - The Hague, February 13, 1994) was a Dutch graphic artist, painter and draftsman who is considered a member of the New Hague School. In addition to drawing and painting, he was involved in monumental art, textile designs and book illustration.
Life and work
Bitter trained at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, where Henk Meijer (1884-1970) and Arnold Smith were his teachers. Later from 1946-1960 he himself taught at the same academy. He worked in The Hague, Oslo, Lecce and later again in The Hague, where he lived in the Artiestenhofje on Trompstraat.
He painted, drew and watercolored family portraits in a naive style; fishermen at sea in an abstract expressionist style; landscapes in abstract style and figures in neo-abstract style. Bitter was co-founder of Verve and Fugare and a member of the Pulchri Studio and the Hague Watercolourists.
