Across the Fields, Corfe - acrylic on board

 

Across the Fields   acrylic on board 18x18cm   ©2023LisaLeQuelenec

I love the way Corfe Castle looms into view as you drive towards the village. As you veer around the bend there it is, you know its close but forget how close. I like this view from across the fields too. It's well over a thousand years old and a much loved icon of Dorset.

Available in my Folksy Store
