The Flying Scotsman Print
The Nene Valley stretches from West Northamptonshire all the way through Peterborough and has the Nene river flowing through it. The landscape is surrounded by lush farmland and old villages with hidden footpaths connecting them together. Jamie has always used this landscape as the basis for his artwork showing the wildlife and hills of his home.
Jamie's artwork frequently uses a range of mixed media techniques that have also incorporated words. In recent years this has become more important and now collage is a major part of his work which often uses words poetry. The lines of various poems have been woven into his imagery - segments of which can be read.
The wide range of habitats such as wildflower meadows, wetlands, marshes, woodlands and wet grasslands are full of a diverse range of animals and birds. These offer endless inspiration for Jamie's artwork on a daily basis as he lives right on the edge of a stunning nature reserve near the towns of Higham Ferrers, Irthlingborough and Rushden.

In June 2016 hundreds of people came out to witness the legendary steam locomotive the Flying Scotsman pass through the Nene valley.
The ‘Nations Favourite Locomotive’ as it is known was completed in Doncastor, 24 February 1923 and designed by Sir Nigel Gresley for the London to Edinburgh rail service that started in 1862. The train has been fully restored over ten years at a cost of 4.2 million.
As a local artist in Northamptonshire, I was inspired by remarkable drone footage of the Scotsman, as it crossed the scenic Harringworth viaduct, to undertake a new text based painting; text is taken from the website www.flyingscotsman.org.uk and I used it to create a collage of this awesome train.
All of my prints are signed and are A3 sized with a white border included.
