On a cold and blustery day overlooking the Merrivale stone rows on Dartmoor (tucked just behind the trees on the right), this artwork plays with the dramatic light breaking through the clouds and illuminating the autumnal ochre colours.

The imposing King’s Tor on the left breaks the distant skyline of Bodmin Moor in the distance, linking these two places which were once Celtic places of importance and worship. The history of ancient footsteps walks amongst the grasses in this artwork, which have been loosely applied to capture the movement of the wind. Granite stones litter the landscape and provided both this painting and myself with a sense of grounding.

The low clouds promise rain, which was sweeping across from Cornwall, making this painting a breath of the coming seasonal change.

This oil on 3mm canvas panel artwork measures 80x30cm and is unframed.
