Exhibition: Julie Cowdy - Fruits of the Earth

to 30 May

Exhibition: Julie Cowdy - Fruits of the Earth

Photographer Julie Cowdy ARPS is holding an exhibition at the Yorkshire Arboretum, featuring her portfolio of fine art botanical prints, for which she was recently awarded the internationally respected and sought-after distinction of Associate of The Royal Photographic Society.

On the theme of ‘Fruits of the Earth’, the images took Julie over a year to complete. These intricate compositions feature fruits, flowers and vegetables.

Julie said: “I’ve always loved pushing photography further, so I combined studies of botanical specimens with textures and antiqued papers. There’s a nod to the illustrated plates in botanical books of old.”
