Blue Mountains Original Landscape Painting

A painting that invites you into the great British countryside.  It reflects the distant hills, tangled hedgerows and fields of wildflowers that typically fill our ideas of a British countryside .  Feelings of freshness and hope capture your imagination as you study the picture, evoking memories and feelings long forgotten.  Different shades of pink sweeping across the painting give you the idea of wildflowers and poppies swaying in the breeze.  Other colours of green and blue compliment the painting, with the addition of black giving impact and drama. And pink evening clouds float across the blue sky giving you the feeling that it's been a lovely peaceful day.

In designing this artwork I have applied a variety of methods, including collage, mark making and pen and ink.  The contrast of these various types of media contribute to giving the picture depth and texture.  Grasses can be seen blowing in the gentle breeze.  A distant river glistens in the summer heat, and rolling meadows of green grass give a sense of a cooling atmosphere.  Pen is used to give the suggestion of rolling hills in the distance, inviting you to travel further into the picture.  A truly beautiful piece of artwork to put in your home.

This painting is on a mountboard, it is supplied with a mount but no frame, and is wrapped in cellophane to protect it.
