Studio View Blog: Latest Artworks, News and Inspiration.
This Blog ‘Studio View’ is a regular update of my new work, upcoming exhibitions, some work in progress images and photographs of what inspires me to paint.
My work is all about the ever changing light in the landscape.
“Atmosphere is the sensation directed upon the viewer, whereas mood is the actual feeling provided”.
My new acrylic landscape painting is Misty Autumn.
My new painting ‘Misty Autumn’ has that glow of Autumn as the light begins to change with the sun lower in the sky but the waning colours of Summer are still hanging on. This painting would add a beautiful glow to any small space in your home or office.
My new acrylic landscape painting ‘Springtime Blush’.
My new painting ‘Springtime Blush’ is a small acrylic on canvas painted in a blend of my semi abstract style and my impressionist style showing the beautiful colours of a Springtime sunset.
The light in this painting captures a vivid and dramatic sunset with a beautiful light and stunning colours.

New painting ‘Whispering Dawn’

Spellbound Evening by Mary Burtenshaw
An impressionist landscape painting entitled ‘Spellbound Evening’ based on a recent sunset. it was unforgettable how slowly the sunset arrived but also how slowly how it hung in the sky for a couple of hours……just mesmerising.
