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. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity

The Eldritch Hart
Description:
The Eldritch Hart is a large original oil painting of a frosty January morning in England with a lone deer hart watching from the shadows of the path. It is a 48x36x1.5 inches oil on canvas. It is semi-abstract and unique in style and seems to shimmer between reality and abstract. The painting was inspired by a walk I took in the Lewes, South Downs area of England in January 2025. The frost made the colours muted yellows, purples, blues and browns. The day felt magical and full of the promise of spring to come. Nature held in suspension and only the birds were active (they start to sing again in January as soon as the days start to get longer). I did see deer on this walk and they never fail to make me happy. I have tried to not only capture the colours and temperature and details of this landscape, such as the low sun through the trees and the bare trees and frosty fields, but also the energy and feeling of it. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

The Wild Wild Wood
Description:
The Wild Wild Wood is a semi abstract, art nouveau style painting of an autumn wood and a deer buck. It is 40x40 inches. The painting shows the view through trees on a path in a wood. There are a myriad of vibrant autumn colours and the patterns and curves created by the tree branches are quite art-nouveau in effect. There is a fallow deer buck emerging from branches and the hint of a path and other trees and a clearing beyond. I have tried to express the energy and colour explosion of a woodland by using just enough realism to show what the idea is. And the idea is how much there is to look at in a wood and how this can be expressed without painting every leaf and twig! The painting was inspired by many walks in ancient woodland and the thrill I get whenever I spot deer. Even though it is common to spot them, I still love these creatures and feel they are the real owners of trees and forests and should be respected. There is more story to this painting but viewers are free to make their own up.

Forest Sentinel
Description:
Forest Sentinel is an original oil painting of a red deer stag in a glowing orange forest clearing. It is 30x30x1.5 inches. The painting is highly textured and was painted using thick impasto paint wet into wet style which gives it a rich and fluid feeling. The deer stands to the right with a clearing behind him. The predominant colours are red, purple, orange and yellow. The stag is in shadow so you can barely see his features as he is contrasted against the light. The name refers to the fact that of all forest creatures, the deer are the most likely ones to be sentinels or watchers and deer do have a spooky ability to appear and disappear very fast which adds to their mystique. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges dark red purple, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity for the artist

Under Sea Rebel
Description:
Under Sea Rebel is a large blue and turquoise underwater seascape painting of a queen angel fish in a pristine Caribbean Sea. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The fish swims along intent on her goal and above her you can see the swirling surface of the rippling waves. Below her are the patterns of light that reflect from their motion across a sandy seabed. Behind the fish is the darker blue of deeper water in the distance. This painting was inspired by a recent Aruba holiday where I often saw this actual fish swimming around a particular jetty. I like the idea of the freedom she had if she could only continue to escape the tourists and fishermen. This is another in a series of underwater paintings inspired by the sheer beauty of a blue sea and the fish that live in it. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity from the artist.

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.

The Owls Symphony
Description:
The Owls Symphony is a semi-abstract, art nouveau, magical realism style oil painting of a white owl with a flower meadow behind her. It is 36x30x1.5 inches. The Owl is a white barn owl and she glides over the meadow in that mysterious way that owls do. There are sinuous lines of white energy flowing out from her which echo the movements she is making with her silent wings. She is a beautiful predator. The background is blurred and hints at a summer meadow with wildflowers and trees at the edge of the field. The owl is painted in thick paint to further emphasize the contrast between her and the background. She appears to float on the canvas in an act of classic owl gracefulness. This painting is a tribute to wildlife and birds everywhere â they never cease to make me happy when I come across them on one of my walks. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white. No frame is needed and it is ready to hang. Comes with certificate of authenticity from the artist

Natures Statement
Description:
Natures Statement is an exuberant summer flower meadow landscape that aims to capture the sheer enthusiasm and abundance of a wildflower meadow in July. It is 36x30x1.5inches. The painting captures an actual site on the South Downs near Graffham and Heyshott across a field through various summer flowers in pinks, orange, yellow and faded greens and cream. The dark trees in the background help to emphasize the flowers and there is a slight hump behind the central clump of flowers which is an ancient tumulus (burial mound) of the late Neolithic period. This particular spot is one I visit often as it has an atmosphere to that is both calm but quite magical. I can easily imagine fairies and ancient souls dancing there when no one is around. I am an artist who tends to reflect the seasons in my landscapes and this is another of a series of wildflower meadow paintings made in the summer of 2024. Dedicated all those people who are working to restore and protect our beautiful British landscapes, nature, animals, birds, trees, flowers and fauna. Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed, Comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist.

Summer Fading
Description:
Summer Fading is a golden green abstract landscape with a white egret beside a small river with pink wildflowers. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. A white egret can be seen on the left rising out of the hidden river she was fishing in. Behind her are pink riverside flowers and beyond those you can see the glow of a golden field and shimmering trees. In the foreground you can see abstracted lines of an emerald green field. This is an actual moment of time I painted recently where I came across a startled egret by a small river. You canât see the river because of the angle but you can see the bird stretching her wings to fly out of it. The background is a golden green which helps to give this sultry abstract landscape an end of the summer type feeling â hence the title. I like to capture moments of time in natureâs cycles and this is a tiny snapshot of a little drama I enjoyed. Dedicated to all the farmers and conservationists who plant wild flowers at the edges of their fields and beside rivers. Painted on deep edge canvas, golden green edges, ready to hang and no frame needed. Comes with certificate of authenticity.

Nature Weaves a Spell
Description:
Nature Weaves a Spell is a very large oil on canvas painting in abstract vs realism style of kingfishers and by a river. It is 71x47x2 inches (181x120x5cms). Two kingfishers can be seen above the river which flows towards us from the left out of a lake. The female kingfisher is hovering and looks towards the male who is about to dive into the water. In the distance you can see hills and trees whilst in the foreground are the birds and an abundance of wildflowers on each side of the river. They hint at being the pink Himalayan Balsom plants you often see along English rivers and streams. Multiple layers of transparent rainbow paint have been used to reflect a myriad of glowing vibrant colours. The golden yellow layer looks as if it is ripping apart to reveal the landscape behind it. The kingfishers are painted in fine detail but with the motion of the wings being slightly blurred to show the energy and motion as well as the physical details of their anatomy. The interplay of abstract and realism gives this painting a magical, ethereal and spell binding quality. This painting is where I want to be! It was inspired by the occasional sightings of real kingfishers who look like tiny river jewels to me and by plenty of river walks in the countryside during the summertime. Every part of this painting has something interesting occurring in it :-) The canvas is an extra strong gallery quality aluminium frame one. The edges are wide meaning framing not necessary and the edges are painted dark green. It is ready to hang and comes with a certificate of authenticity from the artist.
