No. 4 Elliot Harrison “Two Sunny Prints of Fishergate Postern Tower” 2 .2024 A Giclee print
Artist’s note:
I took my inspiration from photographs and sketches to ‘digitally paint’ these views of the tower, bringing out the graphic potential of the scenes with a bright and positive feel about them.
I try to create images that people can enjoy, using a simple and colourful palette, so they have the feel of traditional screen-printing though created using the power of digital tools.
From the digital image, giclee prints are produced which replicate the colours with accuracy and vibrance.

FoYW’s note:
Almost all of York’s city walls are on top of ramparts which predate the stone walls. These grassy slopes often provide a green corridor to walk beside, sometimes on an informal path but here on the pavement of a busy road. The mass of daffodils have been long admired but recently native wild flowers have been encouraged. In the last few years Friends of York Walls started small experiments in introducing and managing native, pollinator friendly, wild flowers in patches of the ramparts close to Fishergate Postern Tower.
