Yorkshire Moors Stag painting – oil pastel painting – 19 x 20cm

Yorkshire Moors Stag painting. An original oil pastel painting capturing the beauty of the Yorkshire Moors – featuring a stag peacefully resting among the vibrant purple heather.

TITLE “Yorkshire Moors Stag”, Yorkshire Moors Painting.
MEDIUM An original oil pastel painting of North Yorkshire.

Last summer, I embarked on a journey deep into the North Yorkshire Moors by car. The sight of the heather in full bloom was truly magnificent – a vast purple carpet stretching as far as the eye could see. The landscape was incredibly beautiful and peaceful, with very few people for miles around.

Amidst the lush foliage, I spotted a stag resting in the heather, almost hidden by the surrounding heather.

The Process:-

Drawing on my degree in Fine Art, I create a charcoal and chalk drawing of the landscape first. I love drawing with charcoal and concentrate on the composition without worrying about the colour at this point. I may make several charcoal versions until I am happy with the composition.

When I am happy with the charcoal landscape I create an oil pastel painting of the same landscape in colour. I do love colour and like to use lots of it. I also love my oil pastels and use them a bit like paint, I can push the pigment around with my fingers during the creation process to create a ‘painterly’ feel to the piece.
