Bramble Web



Bramble Web
Acrylics on stretched canvas - Gallery Wrapped

I am not really a great spider lover, I am not really scared of them
but creepy crawlies are not my thing!

However I am fascinated by woodland spider webs and the way dew sits on them.
I have painted versions of this many times but this is my first attempt at a
bramble bush.

I love the contrasting background colour which gives a hint of light coming through the hedge
I could have put more leaves or berries in but then I felt this would distract from the
web which is the main subject.
 
 
This painting was snapped up by a collector in the USA before the paint was even dry!
