Original artwork description:

This painting creates a feeling of peace and calm in quiet forest places. There is a sense of distance and being able to walk towards a forest bathing place where sunrays cast a misty light over the woodland flowers. In this sunlit space a feeling of sanctuary is suggested.

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.

For secure shipping I package work carefully and dispatch by special delivery using parcel force, always tracking for the journey so that your painting will arrive safely.
