Old oak on the lane

Comments

Youve used the same brushstrokes elsewhere which you have used to paint the tree which brings my attention to the tree with even greater power. A wonderful style.

Beautiful depiction Georgina

Like this for its economy of brush marks, very atmospheric too.

Fabulous. Great brush marks and subtle use of colour.

I just love this, everything about it - gorgeous brushstokes and subtle colours and that touch of light - makes me want to get my oils out.- it's an oil like a watercolour, but better and I have never thought this before, Georgina.

A super, strong atmospheric painting Georgina :)

Thank you so so much everyone for your incredibly kind and supportive comments. Its the first time I've worked this large in this way, and I"m hugely relieved it worked! Its about a 1 in 5 canvas success rate at the moment. For every 4 I scrap, one comes out just about okay on this scale....!!

No of course it is definitely oil paint...and you are using big brushes I think. Working fast with big brushes usually give a landscape this much spontaneity. I love your style Georgina. Your work is right up my street. Looking forward to more

Superbly fractured composition, Georgina. Highly original treatment and very effective palette. It's good.

This is a stunning painting Georgina. I love your loose brushstrokes and the amazing way you achieve such energetic and inspiring results. I long to be able to paint like this!

About the Artist

Georgina Potter

I work fast and instinctively in oils, mostly from life or as a reaction to the landscape around me onto small canvas boards and then I often work these up into bigger paintings in my studios. I try to make every brush stroke matter so that I can be economical with detail, and I frequently rub areas…
