David Hoyle

Born in Hessle in the East Riding David Hoyle studied at Keighley, and Leeds College of Art.

After War Service in the Navy, he went into joinery and cabinet making, developing original ideas for fitted furniture, using traditional tools and materials.

Now retired and living on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales, he enjoys the challenge of interpreting their unique atmosphere and changing moods.

In addition, his graphic capturing of youthful memories, domestic and industrial activities, are proving both educational and amusing in their detail.

Above all he believes that good drawing is the primary requisite to good painting and is a regular contributor to exhibitions and publications in the North of England.

His one man exhibitions are always popular, particularly in his beloved Dales.

Cowling Moonrakers would like to extend a very warm thank you to David for his help and dedication in sharing both his local history knowledge of the village and his paintings below.
