Meanwhile, self-taught artist John Lewis has been painting full-time for 10 years.

“I explore the nature of human existence and definitions of reality”, he said.

“The work presented in this year’s DAG exhibition touches on issues of illusion, vertical time and simply just trying to understand it all.”

Gallery exhibition co-ordinator Mark Milnes said: “Dewsbury Arts Group’s exhibitions are always amongst our most popular.”

The exhibition is at the gallery until April 12.
