About the work

Renewal of Springtime is a large joyful semi-abstract painting of a bluebell wood with a river winding through it. It is 60x36x1.5 inches. A white fallow deer buck stands on the left looking across the river to two female deer on the right. There are strong vertical lines throughout the painting which gives the illusion of the deer, the trees, and the bluebells merging into each other – almost as if the painting was woven rather painted. There is a strong feeling of the exuberance of a springtime wood but it also has a transient, impermanent feeling to it as the month of April when the bluebells are in bloom seems to fly by too fast. The river running through the forest is reddish in colour because I often see iron-rich rivers and streams in the Sussex area. This particular painting was inspired by a walk I had in the Mayfield area which is full of meadows, strange crevices and streams and patches of woodland where the deer appear and disappear magically whenever you pass through them. This painting appears to shimmer and I am very pleased at that effect! Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang, no frame needed. Comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka1p0kvULDw
