The Enchanted is a very large oil painting of a river bank with wildflowers and kingfishers on an English summer day in the countryside. It is 36x60x1.5 inches and was inspired by a June walk along the river Adur near Amberley (postcode BN18 9LR). The river meanders through the South Downs in Sussex along grassy banks with wildflowers and wetland birds in abundance. Kingfishers provide little glimpses of magic, when you are lucky enough to spot one, as they are like little jewels that make a river walk even more enchanting – hence the name.
