HARROGATE artist Anita Bowerman has just finished paper cutting this heart out for Valentine’s Day.

“I love the detail in the tiny hearts, which took hours to cut out with a tiny sharp scalpel, to make it perfect for Valentine’s Day,” says Anita.

Her limited-edition giclee print is on sale at The Dove Tree Art Studio, Anita’s gallery and working studio in a former 19th Century coach house in Back Granville Road, a tiny road just behind Cardamom Black restaurant, near Harrogate Theatre.

The heart costs £29.95 in a small box frame and also is available unframed as the latest addition to Anita's collection of paper cuts that includes maps of Harrogate, York and Ilkley, each showing the roads, buildings and tiny scenes in each town and city.

"You can see the original A1-sized maps on display in Weetons cafe and restaurant, West Park, Harrogate for the next few months," says Anita.

The Dove Tree Art Studio is open on Thursdays and Fridays, 10am to 3.30pm, and on Saturdays from 12 noon to 5pm, as well as at other times by appointment.
