Apricot Dawn - river sunrise (2025)Oil painting
by Zoe Elizabeth Norman

Contemporary Impressionism.

This evocative oil painting captures a serene morning sunrise over the Norfolk Broads, where frost-touched vegetation glimmers in the early light. The scene portrays one of England's most tranquil and nostalgic landscapes, where beautiful waterways wind through marshes and winter fields.
The foreground features a frost-covered path bordered by hedgerows and shrubs rendered in crystalline blues, purples, and silvery whites. A striking tree dominates the right side, its dark silhouette backlit by the warming sky. Beyond, fields stretch toward a distant tree line painted in deep blues that recede into the misty atmosphere.
The sky is a subtle symphony of soft peach and coral tones blending with pale purple and lavender, suggesting the sun's gentle emergence. The painting beautifully conveys the quiet magic of a Norfolk winter dawn, where frost transforms the familiar landscape into something ethereal.
