The first of this series of 3 mini oil paintings inspired by visual memories of morning walks amongst the wild and abundant meadows on my French travels last summer. Bringing a sense of peace and harmony to these moments remembered, the painting is developed with loose and expressive palette knife strokes. Layers and texture create depth and vibrancy. I seek to capture the essence of being there amongst it all in that moment.

Executed with Winsor & Newton professional oil paints on high quality stretched canvas, with universal primer, and with softwood stretchers. Canvas size is 20 x 20 x 4.5 cm depth. The image is extended on the sides of the canvas creating a 3-D effect. The canvas is signed on both the front and the back, and there are 2 D-rings attached to each side of the softwood stretchers strung with strong cord so that this work is READY TO HANG to sit flush against the wall, with no need for any further framing, offering a contemporary finish to the artwork.

Customer Reviews

I had been looking for quite some time to find unique, yet affordable art that could be a special gift for my boyfriend as he moved into his first home. I found a piece on Sue’s website that was absolutely perfect but had already sold. I contacted Sue in the hope that we could work something out and she was incredibly helpful from the get-go . With her knowledge and kindness, I have now received the most beautiful commission that I know will be so loved by its new owner! Sue was also so helpful in recommending the painting size, potential framing options, and ensuring it was delivered safely. I couldn’t recommend the whole process more. Thank you so much!

I have always admired Sue’s style of art. I love the feeling of calm and natural freshness that Sue’s paintings convey and enjoy keeping up-to-date with her new work. We love the vibrancy of our painting and the beautiful way it has been framed, really sets it apart. We will most certainly be adding to our collection very soon.

Thank you so much for our most recent purchase, and for the lovely conversation while we made our decision! We are so delighted with our new seascape. It has light and tranquility and takes us into a completely different space - the big open sky and wide expanse of the sea. As with our other paintings, we know it was exactly the right choice for us and we will take great and lasting pleasure from it.

Helen, Cambridge

We’ve visited Sue’s beautiful studio fairly regularly when we happened upon our latest piece. We were struck by the composition and it’s eventual completion. Sue spent a lot of time talking about the painting, as well as where we were going to hang it to maximise the light quality - even suggesting we take it home to be sure! Her passion is very apparent and we are delighted to have more than one piece in the family.

Sarah, Cambridge

I’m absolutely thrilled with my new painting from Sue, something I’ve aspired to own for some time and I couldn’t be happier. Sue was a delight, she took time to understand where the painting would hang and provided valuable guidance in helping me select my piece. Visiting her beautiful studio was a particular treat. I can’t wait to add to my collection.

It was lovely to meet you on Saturday and see your beautiful work. “Violet Meadows” has been given pride of place on our lounge wall! Thank you so much for allowing us to see it in our house before finally deciding to buy and for helping us to choose the right picture.

Mark & Justine Cotterill

The painting has arrived safely and is every bit as beautiful as I had hoped! Thank you so much. When we decide where to hang it I will send you a photo. We love our new painting!

Sarah, Berkshire

You can easily order these beautiful gifts on Sue's website, and she takes great care with dispatching all her products - wrapping them beautifully, should you wish to send them directly to someone special for Christmas!
