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: 9/9/07, 20/2/09 (click on the dates to see the photos)

The Knott from Hayeswater Gill

From Hayeswater Gill 20/2/09

The last of the snow lies in the gullies of The Knott.

The Knott summit

The summit. 24/6/08

The growth of the cairn is probably due to the close proximity of an old wall which can just be seen on the left. Rampsgill Head is the crag behind.

Fell complete.
