Andy Beck- The Wainwrights in colour.

The sketches shown here are the images that I have so far produced for this "Wainwright". The views are taken from the exact spot where A.W. stood to illustrate his seven pictorial guides. The comparative views are mainly different due to the time of day, weather conditions and seasonal differences. The originals of my sketches are approximately twice as wide and twice as high as A.W's pen and ink drawings. I have added notes to give more information to each sketch.

All images are the copyright of the artist.

Summit cairns on Knock Murton. 8/11/08

These two cairns are now depleted compared to AW's drawing, the missing stonework has gone to expand the wind shelter just out of view.

more sketches to follow shortly.
