L. Amy Charlesworth

Amy is a Bradford born painter with a BA fine art degree from Leeds Metropolitan University who has worked and exhibited her hyperrealist paintings in Bingley, for many years, building up a reputation as a distinctive and original artist.

Working primarily in oils on canvas, Amy covers an amazingly diverse range of subjects from landscapes to botanical, architecture to animals and birds, figurative to industrial machinery, and pretty much anything in between. Her work is highly representational. As she puts it “I like things to look like they look”. This does not mean that the work is without her own twist. Frequently a more dramatic feel is brought out by the use of strong shadows and light, but the resulting work is always instantly recognisable as hers.

Karen Rowley

Karen Rowley was one or the original members of Aire Valley Arts back in 1995. For this exhibition she has. focused on the unique ways animals convey hidden messages to each other as well as to humans. As she explained. “In some cases, our pets’ faces reveal secrets they would rather not tell!” Two of these, ‘It Wasn’t Me’ features dogs whose expression suggests otherwise.

David Starley

David, the proprietor of the Bingley Gallery, first studied art at Sydney University whilst working in a steel foundry, but then chose to follow a career in archaeology, before becoming a professional artist. Oil paint is very thickly applied (impasto) with a painting knife to produce a three-dimensional, almost sculpted, image. This not only adds great depth but produces a surface that responds subtly to the changing light of the environment in which the work is displayed.

David Starley is an artist who frequently paints woodland. In one impasto oil painting a tree reveals its own secret; it is the home for a tawny owl. His other paintings draw on his earlier career as an archaeologist and feature monuments and finds that have stories to tell about our distant ancestors.
