Into the Wibberley Way
This is the entrance to the Wibberley Way footpath up through the woods to the Crown. It leads also to a network of footpaths and a great place to let dogs off their leads to enjoy a taste of freedom. SOLD A Face That's Anything But Gay

Alongside the Wibberley Way
We used to be able to walk up the outside of the woods along the edge of the field. The field is farmed by Ripple Farm Organics who now ask walkers not to use this route (it was never an official route). It has now become a conservation area and one can appreciate the benefits. Orchids have appeared, Great Tits and a host of butterflies. We look forward to what else may appear. SOLD |
Inspired by Lon Chaney and William Makepeace Thackeray. This painting was bought by a husband for his wife and now hangs in Folkestone.
SOLD Withersdane Cockeral
Withersdane is the name given to a large house situated on the outskirts of Wye. I was looking after someone's chickens in this area. The cockeral was the most handsome I had ever seen. Whilst I was absorbing the beauty of the cockeral, the sky grew black above the downs.
I went home full of inspiration, I had to paint what I had just seen. Sadly on the day I finished the painting the cockerel, his owner informed me that he was no more, he had become a victim of Mr Fox. SOLD Zoe
Zoe was another dog who also enjoyed the Wye countryside. She had been a wonderful companion to her owner's elderyl Mother.
After she died her owner gave me a photograph of Zoe in the garden and asked me to paint her as a gift for her Mother. I decided to paint Zoe in the landscape where she used run free. COMMISSION |
Allotment Scarecrow
Sitting in the sun I was taking a lunch break, admiring the ground I had been digging. Two crows landed and explored the soil. It was almost as if to say we will be watching for when you sow the seeds!
I have formed a great fascination for scarecrows and so created yet another fantasty scarecrow in my studio. Fortunately a client from London who also has a liking for scarecrows too, purchased my painting. SOLD ALL ARTWORK IS SUBJECT TO COPYRIGHT
