Interior Light in Farmyard I, 12" x 18", Oil on Board, 2010 ( Royal Institute of Oil Painters Exhibition May, 2010)

As a provisional member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, I'll be exhibiting my first farm painting at their Members only exhibition, which runs from May 16 to 29 at the lovely Hawker Gallery in Amersham.



This piece will mark the beginning of more farm paintings!

It was done with oil on board.

    This is a wonderful painting, with a warm, almost intimate light, a beautiful composition.. I can't say I'm too fond of pigs and I don't think I've ever seen a beautiful painting or illustration of them, but this one really wins me over. I really love your beautiful work, and although I don't often comment, I've been follwing your blog for a long time now.

    Fabulous! You have that perfect light inside a barn and the pigs look just as pigs should.

    It reminds me of the pigs we had. More farm paintings, yes!

    WIRAG-Thanks!! You do make comments. Sometimes that's the purpose of painting-to make the world see life as the painter sees it. I love these creatures and I still don't know why!!!
    Thanks Jeanette, Edward and AC!
