Early morning sunrise, Freshwater Isle of Wight. by Ian Ellis

My place of birth, where I spent my first 34 years - that'll be Tennyson Down/High Down in the distance: one of my favourite places. I very much like your branches against that lively sky.

And of course, it ISN'T High Down - always read the intro..... I've very recently been asked to paint a small picture of Tennyson Down, so that's what leapt into my addled brain.

It's really good Ian, like everything about it

Effective, especially like the trees.

Fabulous sky.

Moody and beautiful.

I have just purchased this beautiful painting from the Quay Arts exhibition. My husband and I both fell in love with it. You've captured the light beautifully and we can't wait to bring it home and hang it.
