‘The Topiary Garden’ (No.2 of a pair)
Commissioned paintings
Water Colour 12 x 16 ins
This pair of pictures were painted in the Victorian style of water colour painting and the topiary set out on the lawn represents a chess set. In painting two, the lawn finishes and looks over a ha-ha into the distant fields. A ha-ha is a recessed landscape design element that creates a vertical barrier while preserving views, as well as preventing access to a garden by grazing livestock, without obstructing views.
