Ashley Jackson: The Yorkshire Artist: A Lifetime of Inspiration Captured in Watercolour Kindle Edition

by Ashley Jackson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.0 out of 5 stars 25 ratings
Ashley Jackson The Yorkshire Artist' contains a collection of paintings that have been personally chosen by the artist to bring together his personal memories and intimate reflections of the emotions and atmosphere that he has captured in each watercolour painting. As he explains, 'All artists paint what inspires them, what allows them to capture what they see with their eyes with their hands and heart. We all have differing inspirations, mediums and connections with our subject mine is the Yorkshire Moors.' From the open moorland of Marsden Moor to the inhabited landscape of Whitby, this book brims with what Ashley does best; capturing the atmospheric skies and drama of the landscape. As Ashley explains, 'I have strived throughout my life to witness and portray every mood swing of nature as she takes a stand against all that the elements throw at her, whether that be rain, wind, snow or fire.' You will truly find Ashley Jackson and his 'Yorkshire Mistress', as he calls the Yorkshire landscape, laid bare in these stunning paintings.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Some of his recent work, which is amongst his best, is almost abstract which elevates it to another level and at the same time is a nod to one of his biggest heroes and influences -JMW Turner.

About the Author

Ashley Jackson, Yorkshire’s favourite artist, has been capturing his artistic passion for God's County in his paintings and sketchbooks for over fifty years. Since opening his first gallery back in 1963, he has become one of the country's leading and most successful landscape watercolourists. His unique evocative and distinctive paintings of brooding moorlands have become synonymous with Yorkshire, and more particular the moors above and around his Gallery situated in the heart of the Pennines, Holmfirth.

    He doesn't paint pretty pictures nor romanticize the rural life. Instead he captures the power of inclement weather and the character of his beloved Yorkshire.
