Work
In the 1980s Ackroyd emerged as a landscape artist. Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design
mounted a retrospective exhibition of these works in 2006 and kept an
archive of his work. His works range from minimalist, nearly abstract
impressions, to detailed images. His work almost never includes the
human figure, the landscape subjects are often of old human habitation.
His prints range from tiny etchings intended to be bound into books to
huge etchings. His preferred medium for working directly on paper is
watercolour, including a recent project pairing his watercolors with
poems by Kevin Crossley-Holland, published under the title Moored Man.
