Salisbury Plain, Everleigh, Nr Upavon

SOLD

A recent small 10" x 8" commission. It was a beautiful day  but got very windy/gusty after a while, and I nearly got blown away finishing this.

Top of Lavington Hill - in progress

Oil on canvas 20" x 16" Working on  a larger format, 'en plein air'.
The edge of Salisbury plain, looking West, with strange light/colour effects in the sky ..... There's  a also a compositional challenge here ... I wanted to convey something of the richness of a roadside verge, some sunlight  hitting  a patch of brambles etc.. Below shows the progression of the work.

Salisbury Plain

Late afternoon in oil. A quick study, over fields towards Cheverall.
