Sheep on White Horse Hill
£675.00
notes
'Sheep on White Horse Hill' by Alex Long is an oil on board composition rendered with delicate clarity. A small flock grazes along the rolling uplands of this iconic Oxfordshire landmark, their pale forms contrasting beautifully against a muted palette of dusky greens and chalky tones. There’s a quiet sense of place here—gentle, grounded, and distinctly local. Ideal for hallways or studies, particularly in homes with a love of the English countryside.

Insights
Working primarily “en plein air”, Long is predominantly interested in capturing the mood or essence of a place in a specific moment in time. Inspired by nature and the changing of the seasons, Long develops a deeper understanding of the landscape from which he is working, resulting in a multitude of quick and lively compositions which exude life and organic beauty.
Artist
After spending a year training at a classical arts academy in Florence, Long returned to his hometown in Oxfordshire to continue his exploration as a full-time painter, having exhibited in numerous group show including the Royal Institute of Oil Painters.
