Beneath the shelter of mature riverside trees, sunlight spills across a carpet of summer buttercups at Marsh Meadows in Henley-on-Thames. This original oil painting captures the fleeting interplay of light and shadow that transforms this much-loved riverside landscape, celebrating the tranquillity and natural beauty of one of Henley's most familiar green spaces.
Painted with expressive brushwork and rich colour harmonies, the work evokes a warm summer afternoon beside the Thames, where dappled light filters through the branches and illuminates the meadow beyond.
