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.

To obtain these references has required 2 days of walking: 9/1/09, 21/4/09  (click on the dates to see the photos)

Steel Knotts                                                     1414'

Steel Knotts. 21/4/09

A view hardly changed since A.W's day, apart form the tree growth of course but even that hasn't obscured the detail that shows in his drawing.

The Summit 21/4/09

The distinct rocky tor known as Pikeawassa that forms the top of Steel Knotts.

Fell complete.
