Passionate People, Passionate Places: the North East s 10 best painters
We pull together some of the greatest artists the region has produced
Thomas Bewick
The wood-engraver was born in Mickley, near Prudhoe, in 1753 and became famous for his engravings of natural scenes.
He is best known for his A History of British Birds and for his illustrated editions of Aesop’s Fables throughout his life. His admirers included the poets Wordsworth and Tennyson, and the novelist Charlotte Bronte.
The work of Bewick is celebrated at the Cherryburn National Trust site - located at his birthplace - and there is a bust at the location of his former workshop behind Newcastle Cathedral.
A LANDSCAPE poet has returned to his North-East roots for his latest collection inspired by the area. John Powls, who is originally from Teesside, used the landscape of his youth, to inspire his latest illustrated collection – North Sea to the East. Describing it as a love letter , the 67-year-old poet, who moved away from the region in his twenties and now lives in Berkshire, has been working with North-East artists to collaborate on the project. It includes more than 100 illustrations by a variety of painters, printmakers and photographers who have been similarly inspired by the landscape and seascape of Teesside and North Yorkshire.
