Beltane
Description:
Beltane is a large panoramic oil painting of a woodland glade in springtime with a stream running through it with the hint of bluebells, wildflowers and blossom trees. It is 60x36x1.5 inches. The style of the painting is contemporary with art nouveau elements to it. The viewer is transported into the landscape between two shady banks on either side of a stream with the bluebells and blossom and a clearing beyond. A meadow can be glimpsed through the trees and it shimmers with the possibility of something about to be revealed. I called it Beltane (an ancient celebration of the start of summer made on May 1st) as I was in the area that inspired this painting for me on that day in 2025 (Mayfield in Sussex). I love the birdsong and the abundance of nature in May and could well believe myself transported to some otherworldly place when I was looking at this. It is dedicated to all those with a romantic soul who love landscapes and nature and feel they sound be protected. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity.

One Enchanted Summer
Description:
One Enchanted Summer is a multicoloured semi-abstract landscape painting of a summer meadow with trees and swallows. It is 48x36x1.5 inches. The painting looks entirely abstract from a distance as a myriad of colours burst outwards from the middle of the canvas in pinks, greens, purples, deep blues and yellows. When you look closer however, you see that there are two dancing swallows and pink wildflowers against a backdrop of dark trees with hints at fields beyond them through gaps in the branches. The inspiration for this painting was exploring the many nooks and crannies of the Mayfield and Burwash areas of East Sussex where the viewpoints change swiftly from the streams in the gullies to the rolling hills and small meadows and ancient trees shaped by sheep and deer and old houses and farms that retain their medieval flavour. I often feel I could come across portals to other worlds and enjoy this fantasy as I walk. I think I have conveyed this feeling well in this painting! Painted on deep edge canvas (edges painted to match the painting), ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity.

New Beginnings
Description:
New Beginnings is an original oil painting in an ethereal semi-abstract style of a roebuck deer in a woodland glade. It is 36x36x1.5inches. The painting is vibrant and multi-coloured and hints at trees and leaves and dappled light in a spring forest. The roebuck is only half formed and it watching the viewer haughtily as roe deer tend to. Three shapes towards the centre of the canvas form tenuous portals or openings that could lead elsewhere. This painting was inspired by that exact idea. Often, especially in the ancient woodland copses of Sussex, I feel I could turn a corner and be in a whole new world. I like the idea â especially when I find a deer watching me (which is quite often in southern England). Anyone who walks in woodland will know the thrill of looking out from the trees to a clearing or a path beyond and that is the wonder of woodland and possibly one of the reasons so many fairy stories and folklore are founded in forests. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity.

Winter Calling
Description:
Winter Calling is a colourful English winter landscape with snow glimpsed through the last leaves of autumn. It is 36x24x1.5 inches. This painting was made after a winter walk I took near the Mayfield area of Sussex where there are many small hills and vales part of the high Weald (formerly a vast ancient forest in the south of England) . This view was one I came across of a farm on a hill with light snow around it seen from a small woodland. Some of leaves were still on the trees in reds and golds as well as the dark green of ivy on the oak tree trunks. I love the contrast of cold colours to warm colours. Like most of my landscape paintings, this is not an unusual subject but I have nevertheless tried to portray it in a unique way so that some of the longing I feel for such places is expressed (yes, I desperately wish I lived in that farm). The painting is on wide edge canvas painted a muted purple colour which integrates into the edges of the painting and helps propel the viewer into the scenery. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity.

Nature Unbound
Description:
Nature Unbound is a large semi-abstract English countryside oil painting of a river with swallows, wildflowers and the South Downs behind. It is 60x36x1.5 inches. The painting is semi-abstract art nouveau, realistic, ethereal and energetic in its finish and totally unique in style. It looks interesting close up and also from a distance. It shows a view across the bend of a river towards hills with mad clumps of wildflowers each side radiating out from the centre of the painting. Meanwhile on the right, a swallow is speeding across the river with several more swallows behind her in the same rush of motion. The painting was inspired by a walk I took along the river Arun in August last year. The swallows move very fast feeding on the insects along the river and the flowers really were this explosive. I felt happy and I have expressed this plus the energy of the scene which is what it makes it different to more traditionally rendered landscapes. I am keeping it on my own wall until it is sold as it takes me to a very happy place whenever I see it! Painted on deep edge canvas, wide edges, ready to hang and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Summer Calling
Description:
Summer Calling is a colourful semi-abstract oil painting of a field of flowers in summertime near the South Downs in Sussex. It is 36x24x1.5 inches. The painting shows lacy white flowers in the foreground which look as if they are in motion. This is a reflection of the feeling I sometimes get in spring and summer that the flowers are ecstatically happy and are giving it everything they have whilst the season allows it. Behind the flowers you can see the view across a meadow towards trees and the hills beyond. This spot is loosely based on a place near Selmeston in Sussex where there is a meadow that looks directly towards the South Downs. I like to walk on the hills but I also love the fields below them where you can walk in quiet farmland undisturbed and just absorb the sounds and scents of the countryside there. The painting is on wide edge canvas painted a muted purple colour which integrates into the edges of the painting and helps propel the viewer into the scenery.

Spring Calling
Description:
Spring Calling is a vibrant semi abstract landscape painting of the glorious view across a bluebell field towards a green valley and the Ashdown Forest beyond. It is 36x24x1.5 inches. This landscape shows blossom trees at the top of a high bank on the left with cast shadows across most of the painting filled with bluebells. The valley below shows luminous green trees and beyond them is the Ashdown Forest. This painting was formulated in my mind last April after a late afternoon walk l I took near where I live. The sun was still bright but the shadows were long and the scent of bluebells and blossom was almost too much. I love the contrast between the sweep of shadows where the bluebells are growing to light in the clearing below plus the way some of the pink blossom was lit from the low rays of the sun. It was one of those bucolic places you come across sometimes in Sussex which is not dramatic but still takes your breath away. The painting is on wide edge canvas painted a muted purple colour which integrates into the edges of the painting and helps propel the viewer into the scenery.

Turtle Dove
Description:
This acrylic painting depicts a graceful turtle dove perched delicately on a rock, its soft, muted feathers blending shades of grey, white, blue, and subtle copper . The dove's gentle, serene expression reflects its peaceful nature. The background features a tranquil landscape, perhaps a soft blur of green foliage, creating a soothing atmosphere. The brushstrokes are smooth, yet textured, giving the feathers a natural, feathery softness. The dove's silhouette stands out, its subtle elegance enhanced evoking a sense of peace and harmony.

Once Upon a Time
Description:
Once Upon a Time is a large oil painting of a colourful woodland path watched over by a small deer where strange things are about to happen. It is 48x48x1.5 inches. The painting shows an autumnal woodland path leading to a light filled clearing. The path is enticing and will lead you to the thing you most want to see there. To the left is a small female deer. Deer are often seen as spiritual harbingers or guides. The painting style is semi-abstract art nouveau and was simply inspired by the thrill I personally get when I walk from an ancient English wood into a light filled clearing. It is often magical and I often feel as if a revelation is about to happen. I am not sure of the basis of that feeling but I am not along in finding Nature quite magical and woodland walking quite therapeutic! Painting on deep edge canvas, edges light green, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist.
