‘Snowshill – Cotswolds’

This tiny little Cotwold village is a beautiful part of the country to visit. Just a short drive out of the village and you end up via the farm tracks emerging into the most wonderful landscape of rolling fields, which seem to stretch unbroken for miles. When we first discovered this place over 25 years ago it was like driving into a breathtaking dream. At the right time of the year the lavender farms add fabulous colour too! The Ink sketch above is looking over the graveyard to the little stone cottages and to what was obviously once the village post box on the wall of the end house.

‘Chipping Campden, Cotswolds’

This little village street scene of Chipping Campden in the Cotswolds can also be seen in my Pen and Ink section. It was done from a photograph taken whilst on a family holiday.  I do like to recreate some of my artwork in different mediums. Whilst, I think, the pencil drawing gives a softer, more romanticised feel to the scene, the pen and ink illustration gives a very crisp no fuss kind of picture. It amazes me how two scenes exactly the same appear so different even when drawn by the same person. It is almost as if the ink illustration conveys matter of factly “I am, what I am” whereas the pencil drawing has more character and depth somehow, even though they are similarly shaded.

(I have included the Pen and Ink drawing below so a comparison of style can be seen together)

High Street, Broadway, Cotswolds

This is another pencil sketch of the beautiful village of Broadway in the Cotswolds, it was done from a photograph taken on a family holiday many years ago. Just last week we stopped off at the village on a trip down to London. The surrounding countryside on the day we arrived was like something out of a fairy tale. There had been several inches of snow and the tree lined roads looked like a scene from Austria in wintertime. As we walked along the main street I noticed that many of the shops now had new residents, indeed The Bindery Gallery as I have drawn above is now longer in business in High Street at this location.

‘ High Street, Broadway – Cotswolds’

Broadway in the Cotswolds – drawn in pencil from a photograph, taken on one of our many holidays there when our children were younger. The architecture is many hundreds of years old in this part of the country and I wanted to capture it in a medium, as if it could have been drawn at any time, from two hundred years ago to the present day.

Snowshill, Cotswolds

These two pencil drawings of Snowshill, in the Cotswolds were done from old photographs taken on family holidays. This is a beautiful, tiny, village in the Cotswolds. It is almost just one street wrapped around a church and graveyard. Below is another pencil sketch of Snowshill Church.
