Artists

From local legends, to rising stars and talent from afar – we’re delighted to be joined by such a breadth of artists and skillsets for our trail.

A rosette shape with other shapes, a paintbrush and an easel with a lion on it.

The artists chosen for Pride of Yorkshire blew us away with their amazing designs, thoughtful inspirations and references and enthusiasm for supporting a great cause. Over the past six months, this brilliant bunch have been hard at work in their own studios, and at our painting spaces bringing their designs to life. We want to say a heartfelt thank you to every single one of them for their creativity, conversation and the care they’ve shown our lions!
