Description
I called this one "Path To The River" more as a reminder to me. Had I not done that, by now I wouldn't have a clue where it is. There is a wonderful pathway alongside the river, but it isn't always so close that you can see the river, particularly at this point, just before or after the power station (depending on which direction you are walking). The path moves away from the river, to avoid buildings and access routes to the power station. It cuts through woodland with lots of deciduous trees and I could almost believe that I was back in England. I loved painting this, in an impressionist style. You can't paint every leaf or blade of grass, nor do we look at them when we walk past. I wanted to capture the sunlight shining through the trees, creating a little bit of shade on a hot summer's day. I was quite pleased with the result.

Gorgeous Martin, I love the sun peeking through the trees, and dappling the shady path with light. Wonderful palette,rich shadows, fantastic composition. Great work!!
