This series of original paintings and short -run
Limited Edition Prints are being produced to complement Andy's current
major project "The Wainwrights in Colour". As all those sketches are
being produced only in original form it is intended that this series will
complement the project and show Andy's ability to paint regular mountain
landscape watercolours.
" Whilst researching the Wainwrights
project I have visited some of The Lake District's most stunning landscapes,
sometimes from viewpoints not often frequented by other fell walkers. Even
though I was focused on obtaining my references for the project I was always
aware of collecting ideas for a series of work such as this. Below you will find
a selection of locations which will make up this series. I will endeavour to
show not only the completed work but also some of my reference photographs and
sketches that have helped to produce the finished piece."
"I have entitled this the "Classics" series due to the
subject matter and not a statement about my paintings. It is intended that this
collection will be of about 12 paintings, but it is difficult to capture the
essence of such a wonderful area in such a limited number. I have added some of
my thoughts as to why each subject should be included and I'm always happy to
hear other people's ideas."
