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.

The summit. 10/9/09

The impressive valley of Ennerdale lies behind the summit cairn with Pillar on the right and Great Gable at the head. Just to the left of this cairn (the one that Wainwright drew), stands another cairn made up of the tangle of ironwork from the old fence.

more sketches to follow shortly.
