a painting of a leaf in the woods

A oil painted forest path. Where I used to ride through with my pony Daniel and my friends ponies Ned Kelly, Rox, Tigger, Prince and many more. Exciting and brightly welcoming with so many beautiful colours of Autumn. Through here runs the trout river, the river Derwent. Once part of an ancient forest stretching into Scotland. It was owned by Henry VIII and massive oak trees from here were hauled out by heavy horses to build the Armada fighting against Spain. Still filled with beautiful deer now managed by the forestry commission. Visited by hundreds of hikers and cyclists yearly.
