About the Book
Dorothy Speak is a talented artist who has found the use of oils to paint as a natural skill to convey a wide range of subject matter. Not to be typecast as a landscape artist, she approaches other artistic challenges such as portraits, local scenes, active wildlife, flora and fauna as well as not being afraid to add comic touches to her canvasses. There is a distinct footprint to her style however, adding a range of tones and colour and suprisingly is quite prolific for a relative newcomer to the art world.
Having travelled to many European and North American regions she has quite clearly documented these experiences well within these pages, as well as adding local touches from close to home, the small village of Blackrod in Bolton , Lancashire.
Having many fantastic landscapes as part of her portfolio can only draw comparison with her mentor, Harry Caunce from Blackburn, yet this is purely coincidental as this is Dorothy's work and this book attempts to catalogue and showcase here for a wider audience to appreciate.

I am a researcher into sport, teacher and coach. My PhD focuses on cricket in the USA, based on time I have spent playing and living in California. I have also spent time in Australia, where I have worked in the ski industry. My photo is me with my partner Gail at the Grand Canyon, and she has travelled the world with me to share a lot of cultural experiences. In addition to my academic studies, I have a passion for art and creativity and enjoy using Blurb to create a range of books. My late father was an inspiration and my motivation is to share his works with the world through this self publishing website.
