Feeding The Birds by Alexander Millar

A change of direction for Alexander Millar again here, as he displays his softer thematic side, capturing a beautiful scene of swans feeding in a local lake.

I imagine the mills and workshops could be off the picture to the right, this little slice of England provides respite to those that stop and gaze into the lake, their problems forgotten for a...

...short while. In fact, if you look closely, the lake actually back onto an outside workshop, only this time its early morning or late evening and the Gadgies have gone home.

The houses are quaint and homely and for the first time Alexander has painted them with a bright white colour, perhaps he is becoming more upbeat in his depictions of bygone Northern working life?

A surprising subject matter for Alexander Millar we have the rather wonderful 'Feeding The Birds' limited edition on canvas - which would not look out of place in a museum dedicated to...

...the impressionism of the old masters!

Alexander is definitely developing as a painter and his work is becoming much more freer flowing & technical.

This piece reminds me of the work of Sherree Valentine Daines who is also considered to the forefront of British impressionism.

If you look at the lake, the swans and the light reflection in the water almost seem to dance in front of you, amazing.
