Lancashire Moorland Farm Painting by Rob Miller RSA

Edgerton Farm
50cmx40cm

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.......
