Geoffrey Woolsey Birks was born in Leeds, Yorkshire. He attended Bradford College of Art for 2 years as a full-time student and studied privately in the tuition of F.C. Jones RA. He worked mainly in the textile trade in the industrial towns of Yorkshire and the North of England, rising to the position of Production Director.

Realising that the Northern industrial scene was in decline along with it's inherent characters, and skyline, he decided to capture some of these fast disappearing aspects of the past. In doing so he 'caught' the humour and atmosphere of the Northern character both in the people and landscape. His 'trademark' beijng his version of a black cat which appears somewhere in all his pictures.

He was an internationally known artist, having exhibited his work in the U.K., Canada, U.S.A., Australia and South Africa.

After a long fight against cancer throughout which he continued business as usual he died at his home in Pudsey in December 1993.

His legacy is the unique way in which he recorded a 'fast disappearing way of life'.

   buying art prints

Limited edition reproductions are produced in limited numbers, which makes the image more exclusive. The market price can rise over time, if demand outstrips supply. Edition sizes vary but are limited by market forces, not by physical constraints of the printmaking method. the Fine Art Trade Guild print standards sets a maximum edition size of 1950, but recommends edition sizes of below 1000 worldwide. Most limited editions are signed and numbered in pencil by the artist with a commitment that no other reproduction of the image will be made.
