I started this painting on a Monday morning after waking up and seeing the first frost of the year. Heading to my studio and putting on the fire I wanted to capture the cold and wintery feeling from the warm indoors. Blues and purples fill the canvas and specks of white at the bottom of the painting highlight the snow covered tors on Dartmoor.
This is an original oil painting on board, it has been framed by my local framer in a simple white tray frame.
New original artwork by artist, Sophie Berger is available with Wychwood Art in their gallery and online.
Sophie Berger's recent work has been greatly influenced by her move to Devon and a new found love of the Dartmoor. She often sketches on the north moors and in Skaigh woods, taking in the mood of the sky, rolling hills and streams or concentrating on the intricate twisted branches and roots of the bracken. Sophie Berger's next stage is to recapture these sketches using oil paint when back at the studio in Kigbeare, thereby creating a strong connection between her work and the landscape.
The changeable, moody landscapes awash with colour, horizons and the vast openness have inspired artist Sophie Berger to explore the feeling of being in this environment, so to describe these works as landscapes would be to miss the essence of the places they strive to capture.
