Jim Edwards is best known for his depictions of iconic buildings and bridges of the North East. His work falls into two genres, contemporary cityscapes and abstract paintings inspired by manmade forms and buildings. Both styles follow a theme of architecturally inspired structures and dominating linear form. Edwards' cityscape paintings are not studies from life, nor is he trying to capture a part

icular viewpoint. His paintings have their origin in memory, how he remembers the workings and landmarks of the city, rather than a straightforward representation. The compositions evolve from a combination of imagination and selective memory, which are then altered and exaggerated. Certain buildings are forgotten or simplified, creating a personal view of the city. Jim's landscape paintings, much like his cityscapes, focus on manmade structures in the open landscape, of isolated farmhouses and the network of geometric walls stretched over hillsides. In 2015, Jim opened his Studio gallery at 59 lime Street, right in the creative Ouseburn area. By combining his studio workspace with a gallery environment, he's created a unique space to paint in, whilst showcasing his latest paintings and limited edition prints.

Grid XXIII & XXIV - Jim Edwards
Going back to 2009 with these two canvas paintings, part of the Grid series. Very much based on the urban environment, whilst holding on to the roots of abstraction.

Alnwick Garden (& Treehouse) - Jim Edwards

It’s the 25th anniversary of Alnwick Garden this year, opening its gates back in 2001.
Spent many happy days exploring the Gardens, back when my children were little.
These are a couple of paintings from a few years ago.
