Bluebells at Happy Valley, Stenness, Orkney

A limited edition print from a mixed media painting by Orkney artist Jane Glue
printed on C-Type Matt

This original painting started as a collage using handmade papers for the trees, I then added over  acrylic paints to create the textures of the bluebells and Spring green foliage of the trees.

Happy valley is situated in Stenness. It was the life’s work of a lovely man called Edwin Harold and many visitors from all over the world gave him seedlings to plant in his garden. Edwin passed away a good few years ago but Happy valley has now been restored and is looked after by a special trust of gardeners.
