Scotney Castle Kent England Print

My main interests are landscapes and nature,I take inspiration from walks in my local area and also the countryside around me, I enjoy adding an element of contrast to my paintings which I think often adds to the mood or feeling of the piece,I often visit the same location to capture changes in light and mood ,while I paint in a realistic manner my colours tend to be influenced by how I feel ,thankfully mainly happy ,when I was younger I loved the work of the Preraphaelites ,traveling in Canada I admired the work of the Group of Seven and their bold use of colour and natural subjects.I paint subjects that excite me either through colour, subject,or lighting ,I hope others see what I see and also get the same enjoyment.
