“Swoop, Sing, Perch, Paddle” bird pictures and other works by Carry Akroyd

This exhibition opens at 4pm on Saturday 8th June. It precedes the publication of the forthcoming book with Carry Akroyd illustrating the long-standing Bird of the Month column in The Oldie, written by John McEwen.

Carry Akroyd is a painter and printmaker living in Northamptonshire. Landscape and wildlife are her usual subjects, and as a keen bird-noticer, birds usually fly into her artworks. Accidentally becoming an illustrator, Carry has created black-and-white and colour illustrations for poetry collections, natural history books and many book covers.

The exhibition will close on August 11th.
