Born in Sheffield in 1938

Scarborough has completed many commissions for large works, including 'The Student Olympics' and 'The Sheffield Marathon' for the Sheffield Town Council, as well as commissions for various sporting clubs including the Sheffield Wednesday and Arsenal football clubs.

Terry Gorman

Terry Gorman was born in Sheffield in 1935 and grew up in the city. After serving with the RAF he joined the city ambulance service. An injury forced him into early retirement after 30 years service. This was when a painting hobby was developed into a full-time occupation. Terry has seen many changes in Sheffield over the years and has specialised in recreating nostalgic scenes of the city.
