Harrogate artist unveils exclusive Christmas Card in support of Yorkshire Air Ambulance A Harrogate artist has unveiled an exclusive Christmas card design depicting a famous landmark in support of Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA). Anita Bowerman, known for her intricate and captivating artworks, has revealed her latest masterpiece in a series of iconic Yorkshire landscape Christmas cards. In a bid to aid the vital life-saving efforts of YAA, Anita has created a design centred around The Piece Hall in Halifax - a celebrated Yorkshire landmark renowned as one of the UK's premier outdoor venues. Titled "Snowy Fun and Festivity at The Piece Hall, Halifax," the heartwarming scene features children playing amidst the wintry landscape alongside a festively adorned Christmas tree. Reflecting on her creation, Anita said:
“I loved illustrating this new Christmas Card for Yorkshire Air Ambulance, raising essential funds to help them continue their mission to save lives. “The Piece Hall is a stunning building which I initially sketched and then painted in watercolour. “I loved detail of this design, especially painting the children having fun, the intricate building, and of course the famous yellow YAA helicopter."With a decade-long history of crafting captivating card designs, previous editions have featured iconic Yorkshire landscapes including Malham Cove, Ribblehead Viaduct, Ilkley Moor, and Whitby. The specially-designed Christmas cards are available for purchase now, with all proceeds directly benefiting Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Due to the exclusivity of the design, stocks are limited.

Regional Fundraising Manager for North & East Yorkshire, Linda Stead, from Yorkshire Air Ambulance expressed her gratitude on behalf of the charity, She said:
"We are incredibly thankful to Anita for her ongoing support and dedication in contributing her artistic talent towards our life-saving missions. “Anita's beautiful Christmas cards not only spread festive cheer, but consistently captivate stall visitors, drawing high praise and admiration for their artistic brilliance, all whilst providing crucial support for our essential services."For more information about Yorkshire Air Ambulance and how you can support the life-saving work of the Charity, please visit www.yaa.org.uk.
