About the Item

Title: British Impressionist Watercolor of Riverside Scene with Children Fishing by Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 11.25 x 15 inches (Height x Width) Signed: Yes Condition: Good Provenance: from a large collection of this artists work, held in England. Description: This evocative watercolor by Anthony Avery (1946-2023) captures a nostalgic riverside moment, with two children fishing by the water’s edge amidst a landscape of gentle hills and dappled sunlight. Avery’s skillful use of light and shadow breathes life into the scene, as soft afternoon sunlight filters through the trees, casting long shadows and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. The delicate interplay of colors, with verdant greens and earthy browns, evokes the freshness of the countryside and the quiet joys of a day spent outdoors. The composition beautifully guides the eye from the foreground, where the children focus intently on their lines, to the background, where trees stand tall along the hill. The gentle curves of the landscape, coupled with Avery’s fine detailing of foliage and rocks in the stream, create a sense of depth and tranquility. The children's figures add a dynamic touch, illustrating the universal theme of youthful exploration and the simple pleasures found in nature. This painting is ideal for those who appreciate scenes that evoke nostalgia and the timeless charm of rural life. Avery’s work captures not only the beauty of the natural world but also the spirit of innocence and wonder. This piece is a lovely example of British impressionism, blending delicate brushwork and vibrant yet restrained colors to transport viewers to a peaceful riverside memory, alive with the essence of carefree childhood days.

Sunday on the Wye, Traditional Statement Watercolour Painting, Extra Large Art
Located in Deddington, GB
Sunday on the Wye [2021] SOLD UNFRAMED Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look The artist comments "I painted 'Sunday on the Wye' after a day on the river canoeing with the family. It was a wonderful day meandering down stream near Symonds Yat. We turned the bend to see other boats congregated on the pebbles for a Sunday picnic. We beached our boat to take in the surroundings. The day was a great experience with sparkling light on the water and the sounds of the water over rocks. A few quick sketches and many photographs allowed me to then work at a large scale in the studio. It was painted with large brushes with watercolour. The chosen colours are blue and green. The painterly brush marks hold an energy and excitement of the days paddling." This work is sold unframed Artwork by artist Leigh Glover...
