Avon of Tewkesbury
'Avon of Tewkesbury' by Betty Harrison is a softly layered oil on canvas, capturing the stillness of river and sky at dusk. Dusky mauves and gentle earth tones melt into pale amber light, while fine brushwork evokes bare winter trees mirrored in the water below. There’s a quiet dignity to this scene—subtle, poised, and beautifully observed. This piece would suit restful spaces such as reading corners, bedrooms, or pared-back interiors with a natural palette.

Inspired by her love of the understated yet sublime British landscape, Harrison has always felt drawn to the subtle hues of autumn and winter. Mist shrouded beaches and hillsides, mysterious forests, and abandoned buildings each spur a fascination, accrediting her Northern upbringing and ancestry in the Orkney islands for her interest in this subject.
Having nearly sold out all her pieces at her degree show at the University of Gloucestershire in 2007, Harrison has gone on to exhibit frequently, both at the Hadfield Gallery and the Royal West Academy show. Based in the Cotswolds, she has participated in art fairs across Bristol, Cirencester, and London.
