The Lure of Trees 4

Late Autumn at Eastnor

The stillness of afternoon at Easton, Herefordshire is the subject of this new drawing of mine on the subject of trees.

Colour and contrast, the feeling of die-back, spent energy and prospect of future beyond the surrender is present. The richness of colour in the bracken contrasts with the nearly-bare trees ghosting in the gathering mist before light fades and night reappears.
