“Bodiam Castle really has a wooden walkway to the the door, but it looked so dull and hid some of the beautiful entry way, so I turned it into a path bordered with small flowers and added flowers in the foreground to brighten up the path.” |

“Castles have always fascinated
me! My collection of photos from friends and relatives has been
growing since I was very young. Occasionally I have added my own
landscapes, flowers, birds and small animals to create beauty
and depth in the paintings. This painting is filled with tulips
as they were blooming. I did remove some buildings to the right
of the castle to bring a more majestic role to the castle.” |

“For
centuries, prisoners were incarcerated in the dungeon of Caesar’s
Tower and the unfortunate ones were lowered in the oubliette,
a tiny underground cell where lives were left to perish, forgotten
by their jailers. After an extensive 19th century renovation,
the castle boasted beautiful gardens and grandly appointed rooms.” |
