Vane Hill Cottage, Tresco
Original oil painting on canvas paper
300x350mm
The oil painting depicts quaint cottages which sit nestled in the luscious background. In the foreground, a curved wooden bench occupies the central space of the painting. The wood appears sun-bleached in places, with soft shadows falling beneath it. The bench faces slightly towards the viewer, inviting you to imagine sitting there, and gaze back at the viewer, or to observe the peaceful comings and goings of island life.
The overall mood the painting is meant to evoke is quiet, domesticated life in everyday rural moments. Trying to capture the warmth of a lived-in place without the need for human figures.
