Gordon Lees New Original Paintings

Two new original paintings by Gordon Lees are now in stock in the gallery both featuring early 20th Century Manchester street scenes.



Deansgate Manchester by Gordon Lees

Oxford Street Manchester by Gordon Lees

Gordon is a self-taught artist who came late to full-time painting, having first had careers in the R.A.F., industry, mining, commerce, and finally, in plastics design where he was a successful industrial stylist. Throughout these years, Gordon painted and exhibited in what spare time he had.

By the mid 1970s the demand for his work was such that he decided to become what he had always wanted to be, a full-time artist. His delicate style and attention to detail enable him to create the feel and atmosphere of the English countryside, and also to reflect the traditional values of a rural England now so sadly missed.
