Art in the Cafe by Piers Browne (1949-2024)

1st May - 30th June

Piers Browne (1949-2024) was a highly acclaimed landscape artist and colourist who worked predominantly in etching and oils. Based in Wensleydale, Piers lived and worked high-up on the side of the dale, with magnificent views that inspired much of his work.

Browne’s work took him from Ireland to Iceland as well as Morocco, Greece and the South of France.

Whilst continued to travel widely both in the UK and abroad, painting and etching, Wensleydale continued to be central to his work as an artist throughout his life. He was captivated by watching how the ever-changing light and seasons shifted and altered the landscape he knew so well, and he never lost his passion for capturing it for others to enjoy. His love of nature, in all its beauty and fragility, shines through in every piece he created.
