As best that I could I included details in The Wainwrights in Colour Book as to how I conceived the whole idea, worked out a system and then took ten years to complete the project from start to finish. Most importantly though the book was produced to feature all of the…
The reviews are in! Things haven’t slowed down much here since the launch of The Wainwrights in Colour Book with my days being taken up with processing orders, dispatching books, answering emails and preparing for future events and talks. There is no time yet for days out in the dale…
Out on the road. The pressure does not seem to have abated yet but at least we did get time to have a weekend away over the Bank Holiday. This was in part though to deliver a couple of the last framed fells from The Wainwrights in Colour to a…
