Like it Ian!!

Would love this on my wall.Very atmospheric.

Nearly missed this one. Convincing texture of foreground grasses and control of tonal values all conspire to make this a wide open space with great light and great atmosphere. Great picture! But don't forget the twins

Oil on Board 12" x 10": Sometimes inspirations nudges you in strange ways. I have had this photo of Ingleborough for some time, not knowing what to do or how to proceed with it. So I used the photo for a watercolour sketch to play around with different 'moods', this then is the resultant painting, although it looks nothing like the original photo or the sketch apart from the two sheep. The painting took it character from the blocking in stage of acrylic, which dried darker than I envisaged, and having had it sat in its primitive, gaudy, acrylic form on the easel for a couple of days, I knew what to do. The sheep, who I have christened Ronnie and Reggie have a passing similarity to their more infamous alter-egos in my warped subconscious - hence the title.
