Kay is delighted to have had the chance to make new paintings and drawings, directly inspired by John’s work, which are included in a new book of his sublime poetry set around his childhood hometown of Middlesbrough and the evocative North Yorkshire landscapes of his boyhood.

Kay’s paintings were made in response to poems ‘Harvest Perspectives’, set in Kettleness, North Yorkshire and ‘In Sea’.
