A new exhibition of painting by Judith Levin inspired by the Haworth moors:
A Moorland Celebration

The Bingley Gallery
29B Park Rd, BD16 4BQ Bingley
September 18-October

New Exhibition  'A Moorland Celebration' featuring the wonderfully evocative oils of Judith Levin, wire sculpture by Carol Sterritt and ceramics from The Nettleton Pottery, Lis Holt and Kath Bonson.
We read in The Telegraph & Argus:
Says gallery owner, and artist in residence, David Starley: “There is a long tradition of artists painting moorland, such as Turner and Thomas Girtin.
“Judith is a contemporary painter, whose moorland scenes are exquisite and atmospheric.”
He adds: “The stark beauty of the moors of Yorkshire is well loved by local people and those who visit the county, inspired by sources as diverse as the Brontë novels, the Last of the Summer Wine and television coverage of the Tour de Yorkshire.
“We are looking to celebrate moorland for its beauty and also its importance for carbon capture, and also raise the fact that it is not such a constant resource and is under threat from events such as burning and erosion.” (Helen Mead)
