An exhibition of Landscape Photography

Christine is an amateur photographer whose landscape photography covers a wide variety of locations in the North of England and Scotland, capturing mostly details and the smaller view rather that the large landscape. The exhibition will cover a range of subjects from the abstract patterns created by reflections and movement on water or the surface of ice and rock to images captured in woodland and mountain scenery.

An exhibition of work inspired by the wildlife and landscape of the Yorkshire Dales

Jo has lived in the Yorkshire Dales all her life and is fascinated by all elements of the natural world, especially wildlife. She works predominantly in soft pastels and loves the versatility and immediacy of the medium, using it to create vibrant pictures of British wildlife and a broad spectrum of landscapes, inspired by the character and heritage of the area. A keen interest in both history and walking has influenced some of her more recent landscapes. She is currently exploring and developing a new range of work focusing on printmaking and illustration.

An exhibition of oil paintings inspired by the landscape of the Yorkshire Dales.

Two Rivers: Two artists who join together to tell the story of the places and people on the banks of the River Swale and Cod Beck. The rivers, flowing from different sources in North Yorkshire, merge together before continuing their journey to the sea.

Rachel Morrell follows the River Swale from the source to the confluence with Cod Beck. She creates textiles and paintings inspired by the colours and shapes of the landscape it passes through.

Jane Wilson walks along the Cod Beck from its source in the North Yorkshire Moors, through her home town of Thirsk, until it meets and merges with the River Swale. She creates textile based work to map out her journey and raise awareness of the social and environmental context of the river.

An exhibition of art with something for everyone; comprehensive variety of prices, media and subjects.

A painting extravaganza of all things Northern

Rae Clarke’s paintings are impressionistic to semi-abstract. With a background in interior design she brings a passion for translating the colours, contrasts, shapes and patterns of her surroundings, into the feelings that they evoke.

Strongly motivated by the horizon between the sea or land and the sky, Rae also enjoys clashes in natural plus built phenomena which produce dramatic scenes and create experiences of places that reside in our memories. The seasons, storms, clouds plus the night sky and our responses to them, are a key ongoing part of her practice too.
