Stacey moore Yorkshire pencil Artist

Stacey Moore's pencil work stops you dead. The level of detail in her drawings - intricate Yorkshire landscapes, portraits that catch light the way photographs can't quite manage - is the sort of thing that makes you lean in closer whether you meant to or not. She's based around Richmond, and her studio-gallery space showcases work that ranges from sprawling rural scenes to intimate character studies, all rendered in graphite with a precision that feels almost sculptural.

This isn't a massive operation you'd spend half a day at. Rather, it's a proper working artist's space where you can watch pencil technique in action and actually chat with Moore if timing allows. The work appeals to anyone who appreciates representational drawing done to a high standard - less about conceptual art, more about craft and observation. Families with older kids who aren't glazing over at the mention of a gallery will find it engaging; younger ones might struggle if they can't get close enough to see the detail.

Richmond itself is worth an afternoon, and if you're staying at Hewn Yorkshire just down the road, you're ideally placed for a gallery visit combined with a proper walk along the River Swale. Check ahead for opening times before you head over - it's a working studio rather than a formal public gallery, so weekdays are sometimes better than weekends.
