About the Item

Devon Hills no. 1 is an original oil painting by artist Alexa Roscoe. This painting captures a serene yet vibrant view of the countryside, offering a glimpse of the landscape that unfolds during walks with my brother in the Devon hills. The composition is defined by strong, sweeping lines and bold brushstrokes that evoke the rugged beauty and undulating terrain of the fields and distant hills. The color palette, rich in pinks, golden yellows, fresh greens, and subtle blue-greys, conveys both the warmth and the coolness of the natural world, creating a balance between energy and tranquility. The use of these colors reflects the changing light and shifting weather patterns that define the region, with hues blending together in a dance of warmth and calm. In this painting, the landscape feels alive—a snapshot of both personal memory and timeless beauty. The layered brushwork not only conveys the physical features of the land but also infuses the scene with a sense of movement and vitality, inviting the viewer to step into this peaceful moment, shared on countless walks through this part of Devon Additional information: Oil Paint on Canvas 100 H x 100 W x 4 D cm (39.37 x 39.37 x 1.57 in) Sold unframed Artist biography: Alexa Roscoe, artist and painter, has contemporary landscape paintings available at Wychwood Art. Alexa Roscoe ,studied at Falmouth College of Arts 2000-2003, where she specialised in printed textile design and met her husband. After graduating Alexa moved to London where she worked as a freelance designer for a printed textile company. Alexa Roscoe now lives in Oxfordshire with her husband and two children. They live amongst fields and trees which is a constant inspiration for the Alexa. Alexa Roscoe says of her works: I am drawn to painting the landscapes around me, enjoying the colours in nature and how the colours change through the seasons. I love seeing new ideas for paintings as I drive through the countryside, and different compositions on my walks. I love to watch how the landscape changes through the seasons. Each season bringing its own beauty and colours. In my most recent work I have been enjoying the silhouettes of the leafless trees standing against the different tones of greys and greens. Even winter is inspirational! I have a passion for colour and love to notice the way they compliment each other and how they sit together in nature. When I am absorbed in a painting working intensely with colour I start to notice all the colours all around me in a different way. How the roads can have a purple look to them and how the hedges have so many colours in them. I even enjoy those great winter days. Noticing the beautiful tones of greys and how they sit next to the golden autumnal colours and green fields. I love using oil paints, how they are so versatile. Sometimes I like to layer the paint creating a striking flat finish. In contrast to this I also like to create works with energetic bold brushstrokes. Sometimes combining both of these techniques. The rich colours and bold brush strokes create depth and interest to my paintings. I have always enjoyed and have been inspired by colourists such as Henri Matisse, Hockney and Bonnard. The way they see and express colour.
