Acrylic on canvas board 14x9". If you know the Derbyshire Dales I hope you will recognise this iconic structure that used to carry the Manchester to Buxton rail line. I have changed the foreground a little from the real scene and left out some of the detail on skyline but I think it captures the scene. My biggest critic (daughter age 6) said I'd ruined it with the dog walking figure but I think it adds scale and helps to show the majesty of the viaduct.

About the Artist
Gary Austin

I am an amateur artist and work in various media but favour acrylics, pastels and coloured pencils. I work full time as a Chartered Engineer and art is my relaxation. I am a member of the Codnor Art Club which was formed in mid 2014 when our adult education class closed after our teacher retired.
