Evening Light upon Sharp Tor, Bodmin Moor, Cornwall


Sharp Tor in evening light painted 2023 with oil on panel board. Stowes Hill is just to the left of Sharp Tor but I decided to concentrate my attention on the wonderful slope on the horizon and decided to increase the contrast of sunlight and shade. It's a painting I have chosen to wake up to every morning.

View Toward Codda Downs, Bodmin Moor

I remember so vividly sitting inside a sleeping bag on a very boggy grass area somewhere near Blackadon looking down the valley feeling very cold. I believe Tolborough Tor is on the left.



View Toward Caradon Hill

Oil painting on board. Painted outdoors on Bodmin Moor. I stopped the car and set up my painting position as soon as I saw the strong shadows on the hill created by the clouds.

Isn't the natural world just so incredible.

Tregarrick Tor, Bodmin Moor




 I really like the overall effect of the misty fog. Sibblyback Lake is in the valley behind Tregarrick Tor.
