A hand-embellished canvas on board by nostalgic painter Bob Barker.
Drawing upon his memories of the Yorkshire mill towns that shaped his youth, Bob's work immortalises the light and shadows that have captivated him for a lifetime.
This piece is inspired by his time as an unlucky-in-love teen with a fondness for motorbikes – particularly his Lambretta GP 200 with chrome bull bars and a fur-covered backrest!
Bob explains: “My love interest’s name would be written on the flyscreen even as she walked off into the sunset, leaving me in complete confusion over the ‘state of the union’.”
