Looking to Simon's Seat in the snow 🔴

My Back Yard


While many of my paintings have been inspired by adventures and journeys away from home, I also paint many scenes inspired by places closer to where I live in Yorkshire. I have put this page together to show them. Scenes from the Otley Chevin, Ilkley Moor, the Washburn Valley and a little further out west, up the dale.

All of these original paintings are for sale (except those with a red dot next to them, which are already sold). If you could like to enquire about one please give me a shout (here or on twitter). You can also order any of these paintings as prints, please use the dropdown box below to place an order.
