Original artwork description:

This painting comes from a lovely wood near my home in the Peak District. Sunlight pours through a beautiful glade creating dappled shadows and light, while the dark trees and mellow shadows contrast with the bright tones and delicate Spring leaves. A beautiful reminder of this fresh time of year in the woods the colours being fresh blue and the scent of flowers on the air.

An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on deep edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. From these beginnings I work intuitively, painting some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife. Harnessing optical mixing techniques employed by the impressionists and some of the methods of the old masters such as scumbling and glazing. I continue working until the painting reaches a natural conclusion. The result is a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The painting continues round the sides, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang.
