Thaxted Parish Church, Essex Gallery

Thaxted Parish Church, Essex

This drawing was featured in vol. 2 of James’ short films about typewriter art produced in Essex.

“The production of my typewriter art from various scenes around the Essex countryside in the summer of 2020. The three “typicitions” were drawn from observation at the historic Layer Marney Tower, Tollesbury Marina and Thaxted Parish Church. These drawings were typed on my 73″ Silverreed 200 and I managed to get through a couple of ribbons on these pieces of work!”

~ James Cook.

Thaxted Parish Church was completed in 1850 and it’s spire has twice been destroyed by lightning. It was accidentally rebuilt 2 feet short of its original height of 183 feet. The church has been typed on the Silver Reed 200 typewriter which is the most compact and easiest to transport around with me on my journeys. [NEWS] – – – – – – In September, I will be hosting an exhibition of my typewriter artwork at Thaxted Guildhall. Entry is free. Dates are to be announced… #thaxted #thaxtedchurch #parishchurch #typewriterart #typewriter #artessex #artspotlight #timelapse #architecture #medieval #ascii #asciiart #typed #artistsoninstagram #artist #artoftheday
