A PRINT by North Yorkshire artist Mackenzie Thorpe - complemented by a beer - goes on sale this weekend to raise money for charity.

Mr Thorpe has been working from a studio in San Francisco while promoting his work across the Atlantic, but insists he has forgotten neither his roots in Middlesbrough nor his base in Richmond.

Indeed, this latest move is meant to underline his continued commitment to the region as money raised through sales will be donated to causes supported by this year's Richmond Meet. A limited edition of 2,000 prints of Golden Sheep have been produced, to be supported by a special brew made by Masham's Black Sheep brewery.
