LUCY KENT | Yellow Tree, Summer Valley
Oil on Panel
27.5 x 32 cms / 10¾ x 12½ inches
In Yellow Tree, Summer Valley, Lucy Kent captures the rolling patchwork of the English countryside with her characteristic vitality and immediacy. Painted directly from nature, the scene brims with movement, clouds drift, shadows fall and light ripples across the land. Her thick, impasto brushstrokes transform the surface into a living texture, while flashes of pink and ochre energise the greens. Kent distils the joy of plein air painting into a vivid impression of summer’s fleeting brilliance.
Lucy Kent is a British landscape artist whose expressive oil paintings capture the ever-shifting beauty of light and place. Based in Wiltshire, she trained in classical portraiture before turning to the natural world as her primary subject.
Working both en plein air and in the studio, Kent’s bold palette knife and brushwork evoke the energy and emotion of each scene—whether the rolling English countryside or sunlit horizons abroad. Her work has taken her across the UK and internationally, with travels through Italy, Kenya, and Sri Lanka informing her vibrant visual language.
Her paintings, rich with atmosphere and immediacy, invite the viewer not just to see a landscape, but to feel its breath and brilliance.
