Ancient Oak

£125.00

I saw these trees near Kinver in South Staffordshire whilst on a woodland walk. Both were ancient oaks and I was immediately struck by their majesty.

gnarled and knotted they must be several hundred years old.

Oil is the perfect medium to capture the bark texture as it produces such a high impasto when used thickly and I used a palette knife to scrape through the paint to capture extra details.

This piece is protected by two coats of artist’s quality varnish and corded on the back ready to hang.

height 61 cm x 45 cm height x 1.5 cm depth
