Original artwork description:

Bring a touch of nature’s magic into your home with Along the River Stour, an original oil painting inspired by the serene beauty of North Dorset. This handmade artwork captures a tranquil river scene bathed in the soft glow of sunset, framed by a solitary tree that seems to stand watch over the landscape.

As an artist, I was drawn to this piece by memory and heart. Living near the River Stour with my little Westie, Bonny, gave me countless moments of quiet joy — watching her splash through the water, feeling the golden light settle over the hills, and savouring the simple pleasures of a peaceful walk. This painting is my tribute to those moments, designed to stir fond memories and invite a sense of calm wherever it hangs.
Crafted with care in oil on canvas, this modern wall art stands out for its rich texture, expressive brushwork, and luminous sky. Every detail — from the flowing river to the dramatic cloudscape — is painted by hand, making it a truly unique statement piece for any room. Whether placed in a living room, hallway, or bedroom, it’s sure to spark conversation and bring warmth to your space.

Along the River Stour is more than just a landscape painting — it’s an invitation to slow down and savor life’s small joys. With its nature-inspired charm and timeless elegance, it’s a perfect choice for collectors, nature lovers, or anyone seeking meaningful, handmade artwork to transform their home.
