Long time supporter of the Derwent Valley Cycleway and local artist, Steve Adams, has recently finished a water colour painting of Wyver Lane showing part of the route of the Derwent Valley Cycleway near Belper. This section was recently resurfaced with tarmac replacing a severely potholed surface and is now a pleasure to cycle along.
It’s interesting to see how green the route is even though it is so close to the town of Belper. A great demonstration of how the Cycleway will link significant destinations whilst running through some beautiful scenery.
Steve will be exhibiting at the forthcoming Belper Arts Trail at the end of August at which the original painting and prints will be available for purchase alongside offerings from many other local artists. The Arts Trail is an event well worth visiting and a chance for you to actually visit Wyver Lane to see the painted scene in real life.
