Moon Dancer

My home village of Ramsbury is bordered by the picturesque, rolling Wiltshire Downs. A few miles down the road can be found the ancient standing stones of Avebury… So it was perhaps inevitable that I would pay homage to the marvels of this enchanting corner of the world. The inspiration drawn from the mesmerising nocturnal sky gave birth to ‘Moon Dancer’: a tribute to the celestial ballet that unfolds nightly.

Immerse yourself in the Moon Dancer.

In the ethereal glow of Physalis, our Hare takes centre stage, swept up in a captivating dance with the luminous moon. Yet, he is not solitary in this sylvan glade; a Fallow Deer stands sentinel beside a tree, while an Owl, the custodian of the Standing Stones, keeps a watchful eye.

Moon Dancer will add a stunning accent to your space.

Amidst the berry-laden brambles, a Stoat in its snowy ermine coat and a humble Fieldmouse bear witness to the hare’s enchantment.

Upon closer inspection, a cloud of fireflies illuminates the ancient stones, and the moon itself reveals the visage of a hare. And true to the symbolic tradition of my work, a balloon floats overhead, signifying the presence of magic—an element cherished by our seasoned collectors, who know that wherever a balloon appears, enchantment is afoot.

Indulge in the timeless elegance and sophistication of the Moon Dancer.

Throughout my journey as an artist, I’ve tried various surfaces & colours… From acrylics on boxed canvas to the refined oils on board I now employ. Each combination wields a distinct influence over the final outcome. Canvas imbues a rustic charm, its weave adding texture. For intricate details, only oil on board suffices, offering subtle nuances and unmatched ability to blend.

Yet, my attention extends beyond the artwork itself; the frames for Original Artworks hold equal significance. Through experience, I’ve learnt how a well-selected frame can elevate a piece, sometimes even reshaping its interpretation. Every choice, from canvas to frame, is a deliberate step towards crafting not just art, but an experience.
