About this Painting

Copyright © Richard Harpum

This scene is on the stretch of the Chesterfield Canal near Worksop where there are 20 or so locks in a steep staircase.  Hard work if you are in a boat! 

Kathleen May was a beautifully maintained boat belonging to a couple from Oxford and I decided to us this as the main feature of this painting.  The reflections in the boat and the water, as well as the bright sunlight made for some interesting effects.  I added the irises in the foreground to give balance and colour to the painting.
