Description
Autumn Trees at Penicuik Estate has been printed from an original water mixable oil on canvas painting. Vivid digital print on high quality archival paper. Print comes in clear plastic envelope with backing board. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
This piece was another labour of love as the grass and leaf detail took a long time and my eyes certainly felt crossed by the end. In total this painting took about six weeks to paint. Also, I was inspired by an autumnal walk around Penicuik Estate in Penicuik, Midlothian, Scotland.
I am a visual artist based in Midlothian, Scotland. I create paintings of woodland landscapes and gnarled trees that I come across on my walks through nature. These woodlands are mainly in Scotland with some abroad in Europe and Canada. I make my work using water mixable oil paint on canvas to avoid extra fumes whilst I’m working at home. Colour plays a very important role in these works. Warm and unusual hues of pinks, oranges and reds set off the lush green tones of the foliage around. I enjoy making drawings of animals using fine liner pens with some additions of paint. In particular, I enjoy creating drawings of the native and plentiful wildlife in Scotland. Always, I am working to expand the selection of these animals.
