@countrymousie Got to see something similar out sketching. So tiny, it could barely get through the long grass she was hiding it in. Its white dots were so close together they looked like stripes. Later, people were throwing balls for 3 dogs where the baby had been! So glad she moved.

@Havenlust B.
Lighting is most interesting and right amount of zoom (crop). 'A' on a wall would get boring quickly - it's all sun.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@sands731 @LeeMadgwick Unfortunately, there are likely 1,000s similar. It was a very popular style, when art was about following prevailing orthodoxy (which google images probably indicated). And if it was a lesser known artist, this will make it even harder. I'd be amazed if you find the exact one.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@LeeMadgwick I've allowed myself to give-in to this urge recently, after years of denying it.

I've quickly acquired three majestic lone tree subjects to develop. I don't expect they'll be anywhere near your level.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@sands731 @LeeMadgwick It'll be a print (on canvas maybe) of an oil by an old master. Which one, I can't guess at - many painted similarly. I suggest start searching: "prints historical landscape art". There are many print websites with libraries of historical art including museums and history orgs :)

@dotfivesticks Thank you!

#ancientsites litter the #yorkshirewolds in #eastyorkshire. This is a huge earthwork, and fascinating echo.

A value sketch 29.5 x 58.5cm (11¾ x 23¼ inches) Acrylic plus other. Am battling with finalising this composition before starting some 'serious' work in the studio.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@IanGordonCraig There seems to be a lot of "badly trimmed" trees around nowadays. I never find them so, but your sketch aesthetic makes this one look attractive.

A small ( 15 x 30cm / 6 x 12 inch ) quick sketch of #scarboroughUK

Decided to spend the week doing non-art jobs.

Annnnd, a new toy arrived a week early… 🙃

@WoodlandNomad Yup, giving your brain a rest by staring at trees is the best chill treatment.

And it's ok, because trees are cool with being stared at 🤣.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@TheKentAcorn Fascinating.
1 x Hybrid 'Veteran' Oak, and 2 x 'Notable' Pedunculate Oaks on the edge of the wood just across the field - right on our doorstep!

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@IanGordonCraig Yes, I've been pondering the "same but different" creative options of this subject, and seasons is definitely one.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

I'm attempting to work in 'series'. This is one of 3 series I've been pursuing: local Oaks

Oil on canvas board plein-air (outdoor) painting: 25.4 x 30.5cm (10 x 12"). Needs a tweak

The 1st composition I decided to develop back in my studio. I've added another 2, so I'm all set

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

Other series: 'The Yorkshire Wolds' + 'Flamborough Head Bays'. Altogether I've almost got nine compositions in total.

Why so many? In 2024, I decided, I wanted to experiment (😳!) with how I make my art, using several types of subject to 'test' any new execution I develop.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@TheKentAcorn Wow, this is fantastic, a great achievement. I've been sketching the local Oaks for a series of artworks. I just have to seek out the Ancient Oaks identified near me. Much appreciated.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@WoodlandNomad Wow. I now have a quest to find these Oaks identified in Yorkshire, for sketching purposes. And I will blame you for this new obsession. Thanks mate ���.

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@WoodlandNomad "Formidability", no thanks. The most attractive feature of a man is intelligence.

If he has a bonus ability of being able to laugh at himself too, then woooo 😄.

(And I'm irritatingly independent).

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@WoodlandNomad It was me (behind the advice), I wanted to sketch without interruption, even though it was a very sunny Sunday.

It worked too. I got to sketch a couple of magnificant oaks on a well trodden path, while in glorious isolation. Bliss [content sigh].

[Lynne Roebuck @lynneroebuck]

@MaureenPlatts Always striking how much later trees come in to leaf in some areas. Great shot, as always.
