AGAINST THE STORM

Gill Stokes -
  1. Against the Storm       OilsStretched canvas   57 x 67cm      £450

This painting was developed from a pencil drawing in my sketch book, made while walking in Cardingmill Valley. I was attracted by the gnarled and battered shape of the Hawthorne standing against the storm clouds, it seemed to symbolize the strength and perseverance  needed in these difficult times.
