AN EXTRAORDINARY SCENE

This should be a title I apply to every painting I do, certainly that is where the bar should be. This landscape is only a 5 minute walk from home. My intention was to do several paintings in this area but on this occasion there was an extraordinary bank of cloud passing as if on parade. Of course I didn’t have my camera with me so I rushed home, returned and luckily not much has changed. The sky really does transform this scene.

Late spring, Northumberland. Day 1
