Spires is a contemporary landscape print by Phil Greenwood. The strong outline of the spires is softened by blue haze. A green river bank splits the work into three planes and allows to appreciate the attention to detail throughout the print, especially within the water.

Phil Greenwood is a landscape artist who creates wonderful etching prints. Discover Phil Greenwood’s work online and in our Oxfordshire Art Gallery. Phil Greenwood was born in 1943 in Dolgellau, North Wales and now lives in Kent. Educated at Harrow and Hornsey Colleges of Art, Phil Greenwood went on to teach and lecture in printmaking for a short time and since 1971 has been a professional artist/printmaker. Since the early 1960s Phil Greenwood has exhibited extensively throughout this country and abroad. His work is in many private and public collections, including a vast number of museums, education authorities and universities, such as the Tate Gallery, Arts Council, British Council, Greenwich Museum, Edinburgh Education Authority, Liverpool University and Loughborough College of Education. Phil Greenwood works mainly on copper plates. His work is extremely economical in that he usually uses only two plates and two or three colours to achieve a great range of tone and colour by the depth of the etch and by overprinting and fusing one colour with another. His images do not always relate to a specific place – he develops and works with an amalgamation of ideas recalled. The atmosphere exemplified by the landscape is the important factor. Phil Greenwood’s work has been used by the National Trust as well as in books such as the Encyclopedia of Printing, Art of Drawing and Painting and articles and front cover illustrations for Leisure Painter. Unicef and H. Ling have used his work on greetings cards, Deutsche Grammophon on CDs and Sanyo featured his work on their 1995 company calendar.
