For the Love of Steam

For the Love of Steam

by David Weston (Illustrator), David Weston (Author)

Synopsis

From the powerful express train hurling its exhaust high into the clouds to the glamour of the showman's road locomotive as it powers a fairground, David Weston's expressive paintings capture his deep love of the steam engine. The paintings and sketches clearly portray the mechanics of the era, as the careful balance of painterly technique combined with an eye for detail, allows for the expression of light, colour and atmosphere.
