Framed Original Blakeley's of Brighouse by Roger Davies

Original mixed media on classic watercolour paper. Size : 85.5 x 66 cm. 65.5 x 47 cm. Flat matt black wooden frame with snow-white mount.

Roger is well known locally as a singer songwriter, but he decided to launch his art career having been trained in art before his music career took off. He has never looked back since with a series of sell out shows. Roger has never looked back since he starred in an episode of the BBC One TV programme. Home Is Where The Art Is.

And his reputation in the art world is rapidly on the rise. Much of his artwork celebrates aspects of the locality featuring subjects which people will easily recognise. Some of the paintings celebrate Huddersfield Town whilst other depict well known landmarks such as Castle Hill or Bettys Café.

Some of Roger's paintings were presented as a tribute to Roger's local art hero and old friend, the late'Pennine Landscape Painter' Peter Brook. In one series of pictures, Roger can be seen watching Peter sketching in various locations. Recently Roger teamed up with author Sophie Edgar to create a children's book "The Magical Kite Ride".
