About this artwork
I have painted many trees over the years - groves of winter trees, silver birch in spring, oak trees in full leaf - and I particularly like the shadows they cast. This study of an ancient oak tree at Parham Park in Sussex at mid-day on a very hot summer afternoon is a great example. The painting is professionally framed in a wooden tray frame and hand painted in cream slipper satin.

Jo Willis is a painter with a richly textured journey, beginning her artistic practice in her 50s after inheriting materials from her father and training in oils at various art academies. She employs oils, working with limited colour palettes and focusing on tonal contrast, expressive brushwork, and the dramatic interplay of sunlight and shadows. Her style blends sharp, unblended blocks of colour and strong compositions, often capturing people, animals, and nostalgic scenes. Her art radiates atmosphere and light, expressing the fleeting essence and emotional resonance of a moment remembered or imagined.
