Saturday 6 October 2012 - Sunday 2 June 2013
A unique opportunity to view the dynamic watercolour paintings of renowned artist Ashley Jackson and the Yorkshire humour captured in the sculptures of sculptor Graham Ibbeson in the stunning historic landscape of Cusworth Hall, Doncaster. Ashley Jackson has had an extremely distinctive and illustrious life in the world of art.
As an internationally recognized artist, his unique, evocative and passionate paintings of brooding moorlands have become synonymous with Yorkshire “To see the spirit of Yorkshire and its moors through your eyes is one thing. Many people look but only a few will see and feel its very soul.” Ashley Jackson 1970 www.ashley-jackson.co.uk Graham Ibbeson “I have always tried to use humour as a tool to draw people into my work, to enable them to look at themselves through laughter. My work has changed over many years of moving forward through the creative landscape, however, my motivation remains the same. I am influenced by the absurdities of this life and the people who inhabit my world. The small, tiny things that make up the whole picture, hoping as always, that humour opens a path to the truth”. www.grahamibbeson.co.uk The Laughing Leopard Comedy Club - The Leopard
