About Yorkshire Artist Angie Rogers

I make art that captures the spirit of the South Pennine moors and valleys of Yorkshire and encourages you to make deeper connections with the natural world and wild places. 

 

The longing for fresh air, distant views and the elemental provides the energy behind my work. Atmospheric drawings and paintings give you a strong sense of place and mood, inviting you in to share the experience of being in this landscape.

My artwork celebrates the rugged moorland, dynamic weather and rapid bursts of intense light that are such a feature of around here. 


Intricate woodcuts and printmaking bring into closer focus wild birds such as Curlews, Lapwings, Plovers and many more which I am lucky enough to see on my daily walks.

A recent highlight was an invitation show my work at the marvellous Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth, which is just over the hill from Hebden Bridge.

 

The solo exhibition of my bird woodcuts was related to the museum's focus on the Brontës and the wild, alongside their copy of Thomas Bewick's famous bird book.

 

What a pleasure to make this connection and show my work in the home of the enigmatic literary sisters.

You are welcome to visit me in my studio (make an appointment through the Contact page). I work at Linden Mill in central Hebden Bridge.

 

I've had a few different studios in Hebden Bridge over the years. They've all been in old mill buildings with a lot of character, Linden Mill being no exception.  

 

My current studio though small, enjoys a sunny aspect and I've created a pleasant workspace where you can view my work alongside some of my vintage tools and equipment.

I find Instagram a great way to share images and ideas about what I've been up to in my studio as well as out and about.

 

I also make a few videos about my evolving art processes and lovely things I've seen on my walks. So if you enjoy social media you can follow me there:
