BOB BARKER
From climbing lampposts as a child to revving his scooter as a teenager, Bob Barker’s touching memories are encapsulated in the newest releases from Northern Impressionism . In an exciting first, the Bradford-based painter has experimented with a circular composition to create a new perspective and challenge himself as an artist. It’s an intimate insight into the life of one of the UK’s best-loved artists and self- confessed former ‘Mod’. Along with his signature umbrella heart motif, charming scenes of romance, childlike fearlessness and scooter mania are captured through his expert manipulation of light and shadow.
