Bridge in Bibury

Bibury is often called the most beautiful village in England—and standing by this bridge, it’s easy to see why.
The river runs slow here, heavy with reflections of the old stone cottages and winter trees.

I painted this moment after a long walk through the village. The sky was pale, almost silent, and the water mirrored every muted colour, every bare branch.
There’s a stillness in Bibury that you don’t find anywhere else—the kind that makes time stretch and dissolve.

This painting captures that quiet: the meeting point of history, water, and winter light.
