This painting holds a special place in my heart. Set at the Longshaw Estate in the Peak District — one of our favourite places to wander as a family — it captures a quiet, golden moment: my little boy, pausing to take a photo of the sunset, completely absorbed in the beauty around him.
Painted in rich, textured layers with heavy body acrylic, "Falling Light ~ Rising Wonder" is about more than just a beautiful view. It’s a gentle reminder to hold onto that natural sense of awe we’re all born with — the way children stop and really look, as if seeing the world for the first time.
As the light falls over the hills, something else rises: that timeless, wide-eyed wonder that too often slips away as we grow older. This piece invites you to pause and feel it again.
