Beaulieu Pillows

Beaulieu Palace House in The New Forest, UK.

Boats moored on the Beaulieu River near the coast of Hampshire. The river starts its life not far from here near Lyndhurst in the New Forest. It flows for a somewhat short distance to the sea passing through the village of Beaulieu from which it takes its name. A little further on it passes the hamlet of Bucklers Hard before meeting the sea on the Solent. At Bucklers Hard, not far from here, mighty wooden battleships were built, incluiding Nelson's favourite, the 'Agamemnon'.

This painting is a view of a favourite spot around Shatterford Bottom in the New Forest (Hampshire, England). Its round about early October, when the birches have lost most of their leaves and the bog myrtle changes to shades of bronze and gold. The grass is neatly cropped by the ponies that roam the forest. The water is peaty and very dark, giving the reflection of the sky this deep blue colour. Such a beautiful spot I love to visit again and again. You'll find it on the walk from Beaulieu Rd station to Brockenhurst. Painted in oil on a 20x16 inch board, based on my original photos of the location.
