Brontë Inspired Still Life: Jane Eyre Notes & Lilac

 



"Spring drew on....and greenness grew over those brown beds,
which, freshening daily, suggested the thought 
that hope traversed them at night and
left each morning brighter traces of her steps." 

~ Charlotte Brontë, "Jane Eyre" ~

    Wow Vesna. Just had a look at your other websites and my goodness... I'm blown away by the beautiful images. You are truly one remarkable artist. Your images should be in a gallery. They are absolutely stunning. Love the textured ones in particular. They are just my thing. Make me want to dig out my textures and have a play. Now that is the work of an artist that can enthuse someone to action.

Wandering around Laycock, I was immediately drawn to the sense of slow pace of life and living in harmony with countryside and nature. The villagers were friendly and took the time to chat to us: there was an owner of a beautiful and unusual, very old house doing some work outside, and further up a group of ladies came out of another house after getting together for a morning coffee. There were some gorgeous gardens teeming with colourful summer blooms and attractive tables with chairs thoughtfully placed to enjoy soothing, far reaching views. We passed through Goose Eye on our way out of Laycock, but I came back to take photos a few days later. Goose
