Inspired by the ancient woodlands on our doorstep (we were out as a family hunting down the best spots in Micheldever Woods just the other weekend). The delicate purple blooms are still out in the woods and there are even a few left in our garden borders. Every year they bring a hit of colour, heralding the true arrival Spring and making me feel optimistic for the more vibrant Summer months to come.
There are no buildings in this bluebell woods illustration, so it’s a rare piece of mine! but sometimes it’s nice allow the brushwork to take over. It’s a bit more expressive and messy. What do you think?
