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 or for taking many photographs. Still, I know that in the near future my time will come and I will be able to move on to the next idea.In the meantime, I have updated the page about the book itself and where to obtain copies from, especially now that I have been able to visit local bookshops and supply them with copies. There is also a new feature on that page where customers can review and rate the book. It makes for interesting reading and of course makes me feel proud of the ten years of effort.
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.
