A masterful post-impressionist landscape where solid forms dissolve into cool, atmospheric light.
A rocky path winds its way through a woodland suffused with a soft, hazy light, its gentle S-curve inviting the viewer into the landscape. The artist works with a sophisticated, cool palette of lavenders, pale blues, and mossy greens, building the forms of the rocks and trees with confident, blocky brushstrokes in a style reminiscent of Cézanne. This is a quiet and lyrical painting that captures the unique, damp light of the North of England, transforming a simple country scene into a timeless study of color and form.
