Holmfirth Artweek

This year I managed to put 2 small oil paintings into the 'Holmfirth Artweek' exhibition, held in the North Yorkshire town of Holmfirth. The event raises funds for Macmillan Cancer Support, and has been mounted annually since 1967. I'm very pleased to be taking part in the exhibition as it marks my return to exhibiting in such events after quite a few years! Both paintings are from a series I painted as part of a commission to paint several oils of the farm buildings and its beautiful mountain and valley landscape.   The first painting is an 8 x 12 inch oil on board, and features the white farmhouse,
Cefn Gwyn, near Aberangell, Wales. The view is from the lane that leads back down from the mountain behind the farm, and on into farmyard and the comfort of the old farmhouse.

'The White Farmhouse'   Oil on Board, size 8 x 12 inches.

The second painting, a 10 x 12 inch oil on board, features the seating arrangement in a bay window of the old farmhouse. Two well used old wooden chairs face each other across a small chess table, the pieces lay as left, awaiting the next challenge!

'Awaiting the Next Challenge'    Oil on Board, size 10 x 12 inches.

The exhibition runs from Sunday 20th July until Saturday 26th July. Both of these paintings are for sale at the exhibition, afterwards, please contact me for details.
