Anthony Earnshaw (1924-2001) was a Leeds-based surrealist artist and close friend of Patrick Hughes at Leeds College of Art during the 1960s.
The Anthony Earnshaw Bursary was set up by Patrick Hughes in memory of his friend in 2016. The Bursary provides assistance towards costs for students studying Access to HE Diploma (Art & Design) at Leeds College of Art. In collaboration with Flowers Gallery and Gail Earnshaw, we are delighted to launch this survey of his work.
