ROCKS
During the late 1990s and the first decade of the 21st century the subject of Geoff Archer’s work was rocks. Initially produced as sketchbook drawings of local, Peak District rocks (see 'Sketches'), numerous paintings were subsequently made, not only of rocks in the UK, but of rocky landscapes elsewhere, most notably the Canyonlands of the American West.
