Most recent landscapes: Hathersage, Derbyshire, England.

Here's a selection of paintings I painted in the summer. Myself and Els were on vacation in Derbyshire, England. A favorite location of ours for rambling, exploring and painting. Full Roman and early man history, caves, fossils and precious Blue John stone! The mountains and surrounding area are made up of fossilised rock, basically you are stood on an ancient seabed. With the thaw of the glaciers it caused a huge rush of water that shaped the mountains. There are really interesting mining areas to explore, long forgotten and kept secret by mother nature. It could be a long lost dwarfen kingdom.

A few more landscapes painted in the last few years. Again all my landscapes, each painting painted in one plein air painting excursion.

First some landscapes

I love to paint outdoors, especially up in the mountains or by the coast with the crashing and eating its way through the cliffs. I love to feel and smell the air, it adds depth and gives me an understanding of the subject I'm painting. I've trampled up snow covered mountains, lost all feeling in my fingers and my feet have froze to the ground! I've seen spectacular shows of nature and mother nature. Each painting has a memory attached which I shall never forget.
