Seclusion.




                  Round a Corner  Oils on canvas board   6 x 6 inches   SOLD



Continuing my exploration of a village I came across this little house bounded by a tall hedge.  Not wanting to pry I took the reference photo away from the gate.  I like the element of mystery...there is a way into the garden...sunlight on the grass and some outbuildings behind.    The painting is mostly greens but relieved by the terracotta roofs adding warmth.

Using broad brush strokes I wanted to keep the painting like a sketch, suggesting rather than depicting detail.
