Silence
  
​oil on canvas     36" x 16
Location: Wychwood Forest. Oxfordshire.



The aim was a union of beautiful form and nature, combining my 
traditional life drawing training with my love of trees.













My special thanks to model Zoe Slater for all her help and patience and to the  Cornbury
Park Estate for their kind permission and help organising a secure and beautiful venue.
