Winter Light on Lastingham Rigg

"Winter Light on Lastingham Rigg" - original watercolour by Glenn Marshall
12" x 8"
Painted on Saunders Waterford 140lb CP paper with Winsor & Newton artists paints

For three years this was our Christmas walk - a welcome interlude from the season's hectic activity - from Lastingham up the Rigg to Anna's Cross high on the moors above Rosedale Abbey. I remember on one walk we were surrounded by storm clouds but it never rained on us. It's been a while since we were up there so this is a very free interpretation of an old sketch. The aim is to portray just how bleak and desolate the moors can be though they never lose their haunting beauty. The original painting can only be seen at The Cellar Gallery in Whitby. Glenn
