Summer Peaks
Summer Peaks captures the serene beauty of the English countryside, inspired by Jill's sketches made during the summer of 2021 near Stanage Edge. The painting conveys the calm of a vivid blue sky with scarcely a cloud in sight, mountains standing proudly in the distance, and a golden yellow crop field with a windswept hedgerow in the foreground. The harmonious palette of blues, soft greens, greys, and warm yellows evokes the essence of an idyllic summer day in the Peak District.
Created using mixed media, this piece layers texture and colour to draw the viewer into the tranquil scene. Mounted on exhibition-quality board and framed in a clean white wood frame, the finished dimensions of 85cm x 62cm ensure it makes a striking statement. Summer Peaks is a celebration of the interplay between light and land, capturing a timeless moment of nature's splendour.
