Evening at Shibden (2022)

Original media: Inks, gouache, acrylics, watercolour, pencil, 23 carat gold leaf and gold thread

All the talk of Anne Lister’s (slightly delayed) 200th Birthday celebrations made me imagine a party at Shibden Hall. Light spilling onto the lawn, chatter from inside. The light is on in the library. Perhaps Anne and Ann are hiding up there? There are several little owls on the stained glass window which inspired the birds eye view and the barn owl overhead.

This paintings was auctioned in March 2022, and all monies raised sent to the DEC, Ukraine Appeal.

Available as a signed limited edition print, hand-finished with gold leaf and gold thread. All prints are mounted and can be posted, unless purchased framed.
