Gatekeeper’s Cottage

“The elements of Tudor architecture give a wonderful “old world” charm to the property.  I’ve loved the times I’ve painted these buildings in England, so I couldn’t resist focusing on it in this rare opportunity where it is found in the Lakes Region setting.  This upper “Lodge”, as Plant referred to it, allowed me to include the lake and mountains in the background.  The oil wash technique works well to evoke the feel of an English cottage, tucked into its garden plantings.  Seeing the brass era auto rendezvous at the Castle a couple of years ago got me thinking what adding one of these vehicles from the first years of Lucknow’s existence might do to capture a moment of life at that time.  I’m afraid I don’t know the make or exact date of this car.  Maybe an expert in these things can fill me in!
