Since moving to Halifax just over a year ago, I've worked on a lot of commissions from the Yorkshire area which I would not have done had I not moved. This is one such commission. Not far from my studio, this location is Luddenden which is a particularly picturesque village just outside Halifax. This house is situated on quite a steep hill with spectacular views - partly visible to the left of the house in the painting. I worked on this painting in my studio from a photograph which I took earlier in the year. It took a couple of visits to get the best photo to ensure that the lighting was just right. The very distinctive stone, has a completely different appearance with direct sunlight on it and I wanted to make sure I captured this. Very satisfied with the finished result here.
