Hughenden Valley by Paul (Dixie) Dean

Great contrast between foreground and background Paul.

A lovely country scene with the village nestling in the wooded valley!

Superb landscape Paul.

Super composition. We visited Hughenden earlier this year, it’s in a great location.

John, Anne,Stephen and Andrew thank you for your comments they are appreciated . It a great location Andrew , it’s the main base for the local NT and where I spent time running watercolour courses over a ten year period. Most of the time I was doing my Ranger bit in the woodlands that the NT own in the Chilterns .

Lovely rich greens, and a lovely backstory, Dixie.

You have managed the greens here superbly Paul. I like how the house is cozily nestled among the trees.

Carol and Carole thank you for your comments .

Looks great Paul, it's somewhere i would like to visit . It's nice to see how you've placed it in its beautiful setting.

Certainly got aerial perspective, and the landscape around the house looks voluminous. Nicely done.

I like it a lot, nicely painted and I enjoyed the back story too. !

Lots to like about this Paul, composition and all those greens work really well

Thank you Sarah, Gerry, Valerie and Heather I appreciate your comments . I’m always amazed by the hills when the farmer ploughs it , because it’s on chalk it has a patchwork of colours ranging from white , pale cream through to a deep caramel look. Then it’s gets a slight green tint as the crops germinate and start to show changes a the crop mature, painter delight matching the colours.

A delightful scene and painting!

Lovely country landscape Paul.

Thank you David and Christine.
