A Stretch in the Evening

26.5″(67cm) x 22.5″(57cm) – measurements include the frame – oil on canvas

As Spring gradually unfolds, the inevitable ‘stretch in the evening’ starts to become more evident. This is such a gorgeously striking oil painting by artist, Mary Roberts. The high sun casting shadows onto the road below, the beautiful and promising blue skies, the bare branches of the winter worn trees, now reaching hopefully north for warmth. Evocative and sweet, this painting is rather fabulously uplifting.

Tree’s, how they stand so proud against the elements and how they interact with nature, the changing seasons and the changing lights, have always fascinated Mary and have inspired many tree studies over the years.

Mary is an accomplished artist who has exhibited nationally over the years and has amassed a loyal following.
