‘A hazy spring day, Culter Fell’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2013, 76 x 23 cm
Price: £900 (mounted but not framed)
I did this painting a couple of years ago after a very enjoyable first visit to Culter Fell in the Scottish southern uplands. It is a wonderful area and on the spring day we were there, it was looking at its very best. The colours were beautiful with the grass greening up a little in the glen. Higher up there were still large areas of snow on the north facing slopes of the hill and we made a bit of a detour so that we could get close to them. I have to say that it was a really special day and one that sticks in my memory. We’ll no doubt visit this hill again but I can’t imagine it looking better than it did on our first trip there.
