About The Artwork
For several years I have visited the Scottish Angus glens staying in Glen Prosen and also Glen Clova. I have always taken a sketchbook with me because the landscape is so inspiring. Not just the mountains and hills, but the colours are so rich. Even on a rainy afternoon the cerise pinks of rosebay Willowherb stand out. I walked along this road looking for a good spot to settle for sketching. It was only when I looked back for a second that I saw the view that is in this painting. If I had waited to see it on the return walk it would not have been possible to sketch it as the rain had settled in by then. Rather fortunately for me I found a large comfy boulder to perch on at the side of the road and worked on a sketchbook study for about half an hour. My only company being a couple of pheasants, a rabbit and the beautiful cry of a buzzard above. I have now completed two paintings using this working study as the source, and both employ different colour palettes. I enjoyed painting this and hope you enjoyed looking at it. The painting is on a canvas panel and is framed in a contemporary white washed wood frame.

www.chrissiehavers.com Represented by Cambridge Contemporary Art. The landscape is my main source of subject for painting - particularly the orderly impact on the landscape of human habitation and farming. The framework imposed by fencing hedges ditches etc and the impact these divisions have on the land is always interesting. Colours lent to the land for a few months by growing crops is another element. The rather harsh lemon of the rape or mustard crops, the cool blue of a linseed field, the effervescent mixture of echinacea flowers - all these colours provide problems for an artist. While they are very dramatic , visually they don’t sit well with the native trees and hedge colours, but I am drawn to them as a subject on exactly that account. This is what inspires my work - colour.
