Fell Farm Painting Lancashire. Rob Miller

Fell farm Lancashire
Acrylic on Canvas
61 cm  x 91 cm




















A work revisited. High above the Pennine valley,  a lost ship,  the farm squats in the lee
of the valley. Sharing company  with the houses of stone quarry men long departed
Today empty byres, quiet halls and  rectangular windows in a  sea of  blond.


Ted Hughes puts it far better..


'These grasses of light, 
which think they are alone in the world.
These stones of darkness,
which have a world to themselves.
Moors are a stage for the performance of heaven
Any audience is incidental'
Ted Hughes Stanbury Moor Remains of Elmet.
