In January 2011 I hiked across Devon from north to south over 5 days.
On the 4th day I crossed the eastern edge of Dartmoor National Park and
saw this beautiful moss-covered oak woodland below Black Hill. The
beauty of the temperate winters and clean Atlantic air in South West
England is that it can still be very green even in the midst of winter.
Mosses, ferns and lichen provide colour even on the greyest days. I hope
I have captured the beauty of Dartmoor in winter here in this acrylic
on canvas...Galeria acrylic on Winsor & Newton canvas; 51 x 41 cm/ 20 x 16". Framed size 55 x 45 x 2.5 cm.
