This small painting is of the heather on the Simonside Hills- "The Turn of the Year".
It's the view from Lordenshaws, where for a short time each year, the slopes of Simonside near Rothbury are transformed into a purple, lilac and magenta patchwork, by the blooming heather. It's a joy to be able to capture these vivid colours.
Then all too quickly the colours fade away into burnt orange, maroon and iron reds for the autumn.
This was painted onto textured heavy weight paper, using Artist's professional acrylic paint.
It is ready to hang, and framed in a bespoke solid oak frame which is 26 cm square. The painted area is 12 cm square.
This series of small paintings are small enough to hang anywhere- an awkward space or on a staircase, but with enough presence to always look great- singly or as a group. Hang them in blocks, vertical rows or horizonal lines.
