House at Hillier Gardens
This small painting shows a part the house
(Jermyn's House) within the 180 acre gardens at Hillier Gardens,
Hampshire.
The Victorian 'Jermyn's
House' was rebuilt in 1830 to the house as seen today, from an
earlier house built during the previous century.
Seen here is a part of
the back of the house, surrounded by a number of mature trees and
plants, creating a cool, shady spot around this part of the building.
The path using natural pieces of stone leads the eye through to the
building.
Painted in a day during
autumn 2014 on a 12” x 10” canvas board.

As an addition note the work in progress image of the painting has been added to the post showing the three stages. The first stage is the drawing done in brown acrylic paint on a red ground canvas. The middle image shows the basic colours blocked in using acrylics. the final stage is the oil paint level done on top.
