DAYS: Sunday
VENUE Red Route 3
I am a Horsforth-based artist specialising in pencil-drawn landscapes of the Yorkshire countryside. I have always loved monochrome art and the striking effects that can be achieved from such a simple medium. I like to work small and precisely with a sharp pencil and my drawings are confidently understated in size but are filled with detail, depth and texture.
I grew up in Yorkshire and it’s where I am lucky enough to call home again after stints of living in different parts of the world. Yorkshire’s landscape is diverse and plentiful, with beautiful coastlines, hills and valleys and iconic man-made features such as dry stone walls, buildings and monuments. When you meet someone from Yorkshire, or someone who has visited Yorkshire, you’ll always find they’ve got a favourite “spot” in the county. I try to capture the essence of these special places in my drawings and trigger a sense of wistful nostalgia in anyone looking at them.
