A new day dawns. The time is just getting away from me, it must be something to do with getting older. I have been remiss in posting updates or blogs to my website for which I apologise.
However, an early trip out to Holwick in Teesdale this morning (and the resulting photographs) has inspired me to try and relight the blog post fire.
It’s not as if I am just sitting at home watching daytime TV, far from it. It would be easy to sit here and re-edit old photos from my archives for use in paintings or on social media. Instead, I have been busy behind the scenes not only with new artwork but also expanding my protfolio of images. These are for new projects and editorial features including magazines and calendars.
Today’s early outing was rather special. Even more so that it was almost on my doorstep here in Teesdale.

Andy Beck-
Having been a professional artist since leaving the Royal Air Force Regiment in 1988 Andy Beck has now become well known for his recent major project- The Wainwrights in Colour which has seen him exploring the Lakeland Fells to capture all the scenes in Wainwright’s Pictorial guides. Up until early 2013 Andy ran The Teesdale Gallery in the heart of Barnard Castle, County Durham which he did for 20 years. Reluctantly he had to close the gallery so that he could concentrate his efforts on completing the project. This has given him the freedom to paint at home in his studio or go out gathering references for his work. Andy lives in Teesdale in the north Pennines of England.
