The starkness of the moor is made more vivid by their presence, and they in turn are given a “charisma of Wildness” (to quote the naturalist writer Richard Mabey) by Dartmoor, although the focus of the current exhibit falls firmly on the animals themselves ."	duncanrice.landscapedesigns @virgin.net The exhibition will include numerous sketches made on the moor over the past 7 years. There will also be examples of drawings and finished paintings that have been developed from these sketches.	free
