The Bridge to Parkmill (2015)Oil painting by Emma Cownie

This is another form the Ilston Cwn series of expressionist, "refractionist" paintings. This bridge has featured before in the best selling "Bridge series" from 2014.
This time I have painted the bridge from a different perspective rather than "head on" so to speak. I just loved the rainbow of colours reflected in the water and the grassing and variously textured river bank.
There was such a spectrum of colour in this scene with the winter sun illuminating a tapestry of colour from the foreground to the back.
Again it is almost surprising that winter yields the clearest, illuminating light and the greatest palette of nature's colours.
