Landscape at Keston Ponds. 9x12, oils on board.


This is a plein Air painting at Keston ponds. It`s amazing really what you can find for a subject if you walk a few more yards. We have painted around this area several times. When you have done a painting, you think of going somewhere else next time. But go back there and walk a few yards from the last place you painted, and bingo.

  5. Hi Hilda.
    Thank you for your lovely comment. That pathway isn`t man made, it is where people seem to walk the same route over the Grass. All the best Hilda.
