Appledore Vintage Travel Poster captures this very picturesque charming village in North Devon on the banks of the River Torridge, with a strong tradition of fishing and boat building which still thrives today.

"I especially loved the winding narrow streets of Appledore, stunningly elegant buildings all painted in an array of soft pastel tones with beautiful doorways, windows, and superb quirky door handles and knockers. There is a passenger ferry taking tourists over the estuary to the sandy beaches of Instow and the river is a popular spot for dingy boats, yachts, and gig racing which I wanted to portray in my picture. I also wanted to add the trademark Hocking's ice cream van which is indeed iconic to Appledore along with some bunting to mark the annual Appledore Book Festival, which is a huge event for the village and takes place at the end of September."

The Becky Bettesworth Appledore print was the official artwork for the Book Festival 2017. More information about the book festival can be found at www.appledorebookfestival.co.uk

An Exhibited, Award-Winning Artist

Trained at Bath School of Art and exhibited at the Mall Galleries' Not The Turner Prize, with a national award for her creative work along the way.

Inspired by the coastline

Every piece grows out of the Devon coast Becky's walked for over twenty years, capturing the colours and moods of the British seaside.

Made, packaged and shipped with care from her studio

Every order is prepared by hand in Becky's own studio, not a warehouse, with the same care that goes into the art itself.

Meet Becky

Becky paints from her studio in Devon, with the coastline running through everything. She made her name with vintage-style seaside travel posters, and now creates handmade resin pieces built around love and connection.

Before turning to her own studio, she trained at Bath School of Art and spent years as an award-winning art director in London, going on to exhibit in London galleries.

Materials, Framing & Care

Materials

Printed on high-quality artist paper, true to the original colours and detail of each piece. A1 prints are made to special order on giclée paper for the sharpest possible finish - please allow up to 7 days lead time for these.

Framing

Every frame is made by hand to order, so framed pieces take 10–14 working days to despatch. Crafted from white grained wood with an optional double mount, and glazed with acrylic rather than glass for safe transit, giving the same look without the breakage risk.

Caring For Your Piece

Keep your print or poster out of direct sunlight to protect the colours, and avoid rooms with big swings in temperature or damp, both of which can cause the paper or frame to warp over time. If you're framing it yourself, dry mounting and professional framing are both great options.
