In the background, Cumulus clouds bearing rain are brushed under a sleet sky as the temperature warms up, it is late winter; in the landscape the grass shines bright and wet, in the mid ground is set the semi refurbished farm amidst its building machinery and a new conifer planting, In the foreground a barn lies fully collapsed, it is now just a few heaps of grey stone greened with lichen. This work appearing at Wensleys Gallery, Ramsbottom on the 8th of May 2011 along with the other Lancashire upland pieces. This is the last of my winter moorland farm house paintings on canvas or at least paintings set around the West Pennines; future works will be on paper. Coming soon new projects on the English Lakes, the Dales and Pennines along with the Western Isles the Loire and the Thames.......

Glencoe Painting by Rob Miller RSA
Glencoe is without doubt an atmospheric place to paint. I first came here with the Revd Father Whin on a school trip and still have memories of him striding across the moonlit slopes of the upper valley in his cassock whilst on a 6th Form Climbing and walking trip back in 1970. The place was quieter than and most folk were climbers. It was brilliant weather and we traversed Aonach eagach, Buchaille and all the peaks in the valley. More paintings of this to follow I cant wait to get painting the place in oils....soon Why have I left it so long mm not sure maybe I was overawed and still am insecure as to how my attempts to paint this magnificent place will turn out....
