Buckinghamshire trees

Oil on board 40 x 60cm, framed

I go to England a few times a year to visit my niece and her family in Buckinghamshire. Something wonderful about the countryside is the network of footpaths that enable one to walk for miles without needing to use roads made for automobiles. At Christmastime, the sun disappears not long after 3:00pm. Though I’m not fond of winter temperatures, I love the low light which rakes across the countryside with a golden glow.

As usual, I build up my painting with multiple transparent glazes which help depict the shimmer of atmosphere.
