Local artist Tony Dexter has ten paintings on show at the Art Shop Gallery in Ilkley.


Tony, who is a regular exhibitor, creating vibrant large acrylic images inspired by a variety of subjects, told Ilkley Chat:


“Over the years my creative work has been influenced by recurring themes such as boats and beaches, wood and barns and Scottish Crofts and I’m delighted to have a selection on show and for sale in the Gallery.


“My paintings are not photographic representations but my clients can fully appreciate the source like a painting of a beached wooden fishing trawler known by many people who have visited the Isle of Mull.”
