From the studio of James Wheeler
Before painting full time James was a successful carpet designer …. originally from Scotland but moved to work for a large carpet manufacturer in Yorkshire.
Living within close proximity to the Dales, inspired by the rugged vast expanses and the ever changing light and weather, he’s created an astonishing collection of oil paintings primarily done on cork.
Wild fells and moors, remote peaks, deep ravines and windswept hills contrasting with sheltered valleys. From earthy ochres and muted greens to fleeting golds of dawn and twilight.
Have just finished framing these two limited edition gicleé prints of his and they’ll be in the shop later if anyone wants to pop in and have a look at his work.
We’re open 11-5 today and tomorrow ….. customers are always welcome for a browse and a chat 🙂
