AN artist who draws inspiration from the landscape where he lives is hosting an exhibition.
John May's Dreams - An Exhibition of Energy is opening at The Art Shop, in Darlington, at the end of the month.
The 67-year-old uses the woodland and landscape around his home in Skelton, east Cleveland.
"There are beautiful walks around here and there are plenty of sights for creative inspiration," he said.
"I'm influenced by shamanism and I express this through my work, which is now developing more into what I feel in the area rather than what I can actually see."
The artist also spent 20 years selling his hand-crafted woodcraft at Richmond market, in North Yorkshire, while he was living in Middleton in Teasdale.
The exhibition opens at The Art Shop on Saturday, March 31 and runs until April 14. For details of opening times call 01325-465484.
