THE KNARESBOROUGH SERIES
BY PHILL HOPKINS

This series of ink drawings and limited edition prints by the artist Phill Hopkins were made in response to a collection of photos of Knaresborough taken over a one year period. Throughout the seasons they capture some of the most iconic views of the market town, along with some less obvious scenes. All expressed in bold colours, confident brushstrokes and an array of dots and dashes that give a lively depiction of this stunning historic English setting.

Phill Hopkins (b. 1961 Bristol, UK) is a contemporary artist based in Leeds. He is predominantly a painter, though also makes drawings, photographs and sculpture. He studied at Goldsmiths College of Art in London and has represented Britain in the Nanjing International Art Festival, China. He has exhibited at The Imperial War Museum, Kettles Yard, Hungarian Museum of Photography, Whitworth, Leeds Art Gallery and The Henry Moore Institute amongst many others.

His work is held in private collections throughout the UK, Europe, USA, China and Australia, and in public collections, including many of the institutions mentioned above.
