The new exhibition at Geltsdale Visitor Centre features the work of London based illustrator Phil Hayes. Inspired by childhood books and charts, he presents a series of pen and ink portraits of British birds.  

Working in black and white, and with little or no attention paid to background details, the work focuses on the subject matter itself; the form, shape and pattern of a particular species. These detailed and sometimes stark images offer something a little different for the viewer. 

Limited edition prints of all images featured in the exhibition are available for sale.
