Geoff Riley - Artist
Geoff is a Yorkshire man now living and painting in Scotland. He studied Art at Bradford Art College during the early 1960’s followed by further studies to qualify as a teacher. During his working years in a variety of schools Geoff continued painting focusing on the rugged landscapes of Northern England and exhibiting his work at galleries in Bradford, Saltaire, Ilkley and York. A further interest is a fascination with recreating the disappearing townscapes of the recent past.
Geoff and his family moved to Scotland in 2006 and quickly established himself selling via art galleries in Pitlochry, Inverurie and Carnoustie. Joining Angus Crafts Association gave Geoff further followings of customers via the many large Craft/Arts events held across Angus and Neighbouring counties. A wide range of Geoff’s original paintings and prints, both framed and just mounted ready for framing, can now be viewed at Hand Pict Showcase Gallery in Letham Village.
Geoff will also welcome enquiries for commissioning a painting.
