Laura Oldfield Ford

Just discovered the work of Laura Oldfield Ford.   This is my favourite piece because it reminds me of the outbuildings at the farm where I grew up..
Her scenes of dereliction compare with George Shaws images from his series The Passion

Discovering George Shaw

Coventry artist George Shaw paints the landscapes that he grew up with in Tile Hill, Coventry.

This is one of my favourite images.The now dilapidated look of the garages built not that long ago (I would guess about mid fifties) is a reminder of how everything is affected by the passing of time
