Landscape Summer 2012 – Garden with Trees VI

Garden with Trees VI 2013

From my archives, Garden with Trees VI 2012. I thought it would be a change to post something brighter than my recent work, but I haven’t done anything bright since last year! So I’ve chosen this. The trees here have still not leafed in any significant way. feels like we are 6 weeks behind the normal season.

Mixed media: coloured pencil, crayon and acrylic paint on white paper. 26cm x 14.5cm. 2012.

Landscape Sketch in the Chiltern Hills Early April 2013

Landscape Sketch April 2013 - 1

Mixed media: crayon, coloured pencil, graphite and pastel on white paper, April 2013.

A sketch of a solitary copse of trees in a field in the Chiltern Hills made in early April, while the weather was still dull and wintry. I will post some more small sketches in the next week. A big thank you to all who follow me and thanks to all who give me insights into their own work and such pleasure and inspiration through what they share in return. Nicholas.

Landscape - Chiltern Hills 2013 - 3

Mixed media: graphite, coloured pencil, crayon, pastel, acrylic paint on white paper, March 2013

It was still wintry in the Chiltern Hills over the Easter holidays and the distant landscape of gentle hills and woods looked drab on first view, but there was colour everywhere, especially as the grey cloud lifted and one’s eyes started to pick out the intense subtleties all around, especially the colouring that new buds give to the twiggy outlines of the still leafless trees. I used a tight earthy palette of colours for this drawing.
