The Beauty of Wild Berries

I had been sitting at my desk all day, the rain pouring down the windows, then at 6 o’clock the clouds parted and changed from leaden to cream, and billowing - time for a walk.

Hawthorne Berries linocut print

On Exmoor with the huge blue early evening sky above me I came across a grove of hawthorn trees. A grove of trees feels sacred to me.

One tree appeared to have a musical shape, with the crimson berries marking the rhythm across the branches. I photographed the view and knew immediately that I wanted to create a linocut landscape print from the moment.

Print available in my shop.
