'Drawing and Painting the Agricultural Landscape'

John D. Petty

May 12th - June 10th 2018

Most of my drawings and paintings are of the area along the north bank of the River Humber. It’s a landscape to which I have a strong attachment. Much of it is reclaimed marsh land and is intensively farmed. It is also flat—very flat—and I find this a stimulating challenge; how to deal with a landscape in which the only vertical accents might be the electricity poles, the hedgerows or the occasional copse of trees.
