Original artwork description:

In this painting celebrating Spring, sunlight plays through beautiful leaves creating dappled light, while the shadows contrast with the bright hues inspired by wild roses and delicate tones of apple blossom. A tapestry of optimism and colour emerges, reminiscent of fresh woodland breezes and the scent of flowers in the air.
An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on a circular 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 and is signed on the side; a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang. For display purposes the painting has been photographed on a white background.
