“Little and Large”

A large shire horse and a donkey happily coexisting in a rustic farmyard. The historic  building with thatch made a perfect setting. The pond was essential as were the geese.

DIMENSIONS: 18 x 24”

MEDIUM: Oil

HIGHLANDCATTLEc.jpg

“In The Highlands”

Scottish landscapes provide some of the most exciting moments in the build up to painting. I think this is because the drama of the landscape and weather provide me with opportunities to extend the effects of light and shade and allow my imagination to play a bigger part. The warm colours of the cattle are a perfect foil against the cooler colours of the landscape.

DIMENSIONS: 24 x 36”

MEDIUM: Oil

 

FARMYARDFRIENDSc.jpg

“Farmyard Friends”

Ever popular and a delight to paint animals in a rustic rural setting. The contrast between the chicks, rabbit and gentle weathered setting create a very homely and timeless image.

I called into a local farm shop to purchase some free range eggs. The chicks were in a pen and having explained my motives to a very helpful owner I immediately returned with my camera.

DIMENSIONS: 13 x 16”

MEDIUM: OIL

“After A Hard Days Play”

This painting shows a shire horse and foal which is taking a well earned rest having spent some time running around playing and exploring its new environment. The mare is close by to ensure all is well.

DIMENSIONS: 22 x 30”

MEDIUM: Oil
