Original artwork description:

This painting is a small oil painting of a view seen at the old Chard Canal that ran from Creech St Michael to Chard in Somerset. The abandoned canal was filled in and left to nature, as she reclaimed the canal. The results are these wonderful trees and plants that cover most of the canal, which is largely broken up in to sections that run from Creech to Chard.

I am drawn to those areas of our past that have been left to nature, whether these are old buildings or old infrastructures that give us a sense of what had once existed in the past, now reclaimed by nature.

The painting was created initially as a plein air study in 2023 and then completed back in the studio during the spring of 2024. This place is an area I visit regularly on by bicycle as I like to cycle along the river and canal.
