About the Item

My interest is to convey elements of the classical arcadian landscape paintings of the 17th and 18th century, inviting the viewer to reflect again at the sublime landscape of the past, in relation to the negative impact of human’s activity on the planet since. My reference comes originally from living for many years by the River Thames and more recently from my long walks, through the woods, following a river that periodically leads out onto several lakes along the way. The first and last light, in particular, transform these private little places into magical havens, where the trees meet the water, as the sun rises or dips behind. It's my constant effort and passion to try and capture this exquisite, elusive and vaporous light, set in a sublime landscape. Oil Paint on Linen 108 H x 108 W x 4 D cm (42.52 x 42.52 x 1.57 in) Sold framed Louise Fairchild gained a Fine Art (BA Hons) Degree at Reading University, after a Foundation Year at Sheffield Art College, and worked as an illustrator and artist worldwide for many years. Commissions in this period include British Airways, Barclays Bank PLC, The Home Office, Fortnum and Mason, Bloomsbury Publishing, Boots the Chemist, Blass Wine Estates, Random House Publishing, Woolwich Building Society and Marks and Spencer PLC. She also had numerous portrait commissions for the board of directors of companies such as Sainsburys Plc, Fidelity Investments International and PriceWaterhouseCoopers, as well as a monthly commissioned portrait of a prominent figure in business or government for the CBI magazine. In 2009 she returned to Fine Art full time.

Helmut Gransow Landscape w/House & Barn "Springtime Reflections No. I"
Located in Detroit, MI
SALE ONE WEEK ONLY “Springtown Reflections No. I” depicts the moment of change in the weather moving from harsh winter to the first warming days of spring melting the snow. The title suggests a moment to pause in farm life before the coming spring planting and also suggests a time of mental reflection on life and work. The puddles of melting snow reflect the buildings in the scene. The muted colors and slightly off kilter structures cause the buildings to appear worn but sturdy, a soft idyllic scene of rural life.
