Flat Top House, Bishop Wilton.


Flat Top House Bishop Wilton. 
This is a large oil, painting, 1.5 m x 1 m taken from a plein air painting made earlier. The painting has three levels of  undercoat applied. This gave me a suitable base to start planning the drawing and to subsequently make this painting . The house is situated above the village of Bishop Wilton. Earlier , in the village, I had seen the newly developed, wonderful gallery run by the artist Mark Ibsen. This is a must for artists and those interested in art and sculpture so please try and visit if you can. Below are several details from the painting which I think indicate the loose nature of my application ( suggested viewing from 3 metres) . The house is elevated, sitting on high ground at the end of a valley known as Worsen Dale. It is a magical area, the local shop sells coffee and cake as well as supplying essential items and is run by local volunteers, again, please visit if you can. 
Now varnished and ready for a new home.
