NEW REVISED PAPERBACK EDITION: OUT NOW
This new, paperback edition, is a revised pressing based on last years successful hardback book; with an additional 14 new, previously unpublished, paintings.
This beautiful book will make a wonderful gift for anyone who loves architecture, art and the City of Sheffield, the Peak District and trips to the Yorkshire coast.
Over the years, Bryn had often been asked if he had a book; in response, he published his first one in the autumn of 2018. It was a special, limited edition, hardback book with only 300 copies printed, hand-numbered and signed. It was a great success selling out just after Christmas 2019.
Based on the popularity of his first book, we are now pleased to announce Bryn has just published a revised, paperback, edition. You can buy it exclusively online from this website (BUY NOW), to avoid disappoint order your copy today.

- my list of paintings for the "Ten Artists Exhibition"
Here is the list of my paintings for the "Ten Artists Exhibition" at Baslow Village Hall tomorrow and Sunday. The weather forecast is good for tomorrow and not bad on Sunday - come and see us, the other 9 Artists are much better than me.
- 10 paintings
Ready! My 10 paintings for the "Ten Artists Exhibition" at Baslow Village Hall this coming weekend. Just have to get together all the prints and cards I've produced.... then relax (until Saturday)
- White Edge Lodge near the Fox House
White Edge Lodge above the Grouse Inn and Froggatt in the Derwent Valley, Derbyshire, very close to Chatsworth House. We pass it twice every week on our way from Sheffield to Calver to enjoy 2 of our beautiful grandchildren. My memory is of the house silhouetted above the moor with a threatening sky - I think I might have overdone the threat! Again, I've faded out the edges of the painting to protect the innocent.
Chatsworth, Derbyshire
Another Travel Poster from the Peak District. Chatsworth House 11.5 miles from our home in Ringinglow Village. Not had the Duke's permission to produce this, so it's not for commercial use!
Derbyshire Travel Poster - Curbar Edge
A fine gritstone edge above the Derwent Valley!
Another Travel Poster
Another Travel Poster, this is Higger Tor about 3 miles from home.

Vintage Posters in my style
It was suggested to me to look at ideas for Posters in a vintage style but with the help of more modern techniques (ie. via my computer). Without starting from square one, I used one of my (many) scanned images and with a few adjustments my first effort ended up with the attached. Can you spot the little twist?

More from our Ezra's Diary
Ez's diary again
Now the Art Show submission season is over I have time to devote to our grandson Ezra's diary again. To cross the busy A623 at Calver between Chesterfield and Manchester we use the underpass (above). It's concrete wall to wall and floor to ceiling like an echo chamber so I can demonstrate my yodelling expertise to Ezra. I think he's impressed. He's in the No 2 pram with Grannie in control. That's Hulleys of Baslow bus crossing the underpass so it must be 10.45 - 15 minutes to coffee time!
