Lingholm Estate Portinscale Keswick 2019 new prints
Here's a selection of the recent works from 2019 that I've been working on for the Seymour family and their Lingholm Estate. The estate is situated on the picturesque west shore of Derwentwater near Keswick in the English Lake District. At the centre of the estate is a lovely old mansion that was once visited frequently by Beatrice Potter. Later it became the residence of Lord Rochdale and his family.
Though my initial work here was all to do with the surrounding fells painted and presented as two large triptychs in the Stone Room, of late I've been working in the amazing new walled garden. Inspired by Beatrice Potter and based upon the quality of the Victorian Garden, the walled garden has been built around the ethics of quality both in its references to early 19C garden design and to the planting.
