Unfortunately the Original Art Exhibitions event at Addingham this weekend (July 29th) has been cancelled.  A number of exhibitors travelling north are not able to attend due to the recent flooding.  Apologies for any inconvenience caused.  The two day event in August will go ahead as planned.

In fact, August will be a busy month, with Mark Sunderland showing at four two day events, so there are plenty of opportunities to see his photographs...

4-5 August: Grassington Arts and Crafts Fair, Grassington Town Hall

10-11 August: feva ART @ Cliff House, Hilton Lane, Knaresborough

16-17 August: Wensleydale Craft Fairs, The Market House, Hawes

A number of Yorkshire Through The Seasons prints are now available through Northern Galleries in the Market Place, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire.

For more details on Northern Galleries see: http://www.northerngalleries.co.uk

If you missed my recent Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library, you have another chance to see some of the images in Knaresborough from this month

The images will be on show at McQueen's Cafe, 51 High Street, Knaresborough

From 25th January 2007 until late March 2007 (date to be confirmed)

This month's image is the rather alarming Storm Over Littondale:

This image was captured way up Littondale late on a winter afternoon, with clouds rushing by and casting ever-changing shadows on the daleside.

This was one of the images in my Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library last month.  Thanks to everyone that visited, and for the nice comments in the visitors book, some of which are now available to view on the website at:

www.marksunderland.com/Exhibitions/YorkshireThroughTheSeasons.html

My apologies if you were hoping to read a message announcing a January Sale!

Unfortunately last year's alignment of prices between web and art show sales, with the introduction of separate delivery charges, was the last reduction in prices that I am able to offer (ever).  This is, of course, great news if you bought a print in 2006, as prices are only going upwards from now on!  However, my fine art print prices will remain at the current levels for the time being - but I am expecting them to rise later in 2007.

Due to production costs, my A5 greetings card price will rise to £2.80 this month.

Mark Sunderland's Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition is now showing at The Stairwell Gallery, Harrogate Library!

A new image series entitled A Yorkshire Summer has been added to the website, featuring ten new images taken across Yorkshire during the summer of 2006.

Summer Heather - Hole of Horcum, North York Moors

Along with the earlier autumn, winter and spring image series, this completes the set of images on show in the Yorkshire Through The Seasons exhibition at Harrogate Library from Monday, 11 December through to Saturday 23 December.

So says the local press!  My new exhibition Yorkshire Through The Seasons, which starts on Moday 11th December 2006, gets a mention in this week's Knaresborough Post, along with two photographs, Summer Heather and Oak Trees in Spring.  Plus, the Weekend what's on guide (also included in the Harrogate Advertiser) has a feature on the exhibition along with my Pen-Y-Ghent image.

The exhibition is at Harrogate Library and continues until 23rd December 2006.

Mark Sunderland Photography is pleased to announce that all online payments will from today be handled by PayPal.  This gives additional flexibility, allowing customers to pay through their existing PayPal account if they have one, whilst still retaining the ability to pay securely with a credit card without the need for a PayPal account.

Along with this change, a new smaller 30x24cm print size has been introduced at just £27, and online prices of all prints have been brought into line with sales at art markets and shows, with postage and packing now being charged separately on the website.  This represents an overall reduction in prices.

Mark Sunderland Photography has teamed up with local bespoke printing firm Shake Design to offer a range of images on a variety of canvas and fabric surfaces.  These pieces are supplied on box frames ready to hang.

A wide range of Mark Sunderland images is available, including Sandstone Swirls below, which looks great on the Poly Satin surface.

Unlike traditional canvas prints which can easily be damaged, Shake Design's fabrics are highly durable and won't crack, rip or sag.
