Randolph Hewton studied under William Brymner at the Art Association of Montreal and in 1903 received the Wood Scholarship, enabling him to pursue further education in Paris at the Academie Julian. There, he forged a lasting friendship and artistic collaboration with A.Y. Jackson. Their bond extended beyond art, as they both served in World War I, with Hewton earning the Military Cross for gallantry. Notably in 1920 Hewton was invited to exhibit in the first Group of Seven show at the Art Gallery of Toronto. On a number of occasions Hewton was invited on sketches trips with Dr. Frederick Banting and Jackson. Amidst his artistic endeavors, Hewton balanced leadership roles in industry, leaving a legacy not only as a painter but also as a transformative figure in the business world.
An exhibition of Hewton’s work took place at the Walter Klinkhoff Galleries in 1961 with A.Y. Jackson writting the foreword to the catalogue. The Art Gallery of Hamilton held an exhibition of his work in 1947. Hewton is represented in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada; The Quebec Provincial Museum; The Art Gallery of Ontario and many private collections. He was a member of the Art Club, Montreal, The Royal Canadian Academy (R.C.A. 1934) and the Canadian Group of Painters (founding member).
