Mrs Summerhouse’s art : ‘Atha’s pond’

Atha’s pond at twilight

A different location this month, not my usual picture from Nidderdale or our local park but a picture from a photo taken near our daughter’s and son-in-law’s house east of Leeds. It’s not really called Atha’s pond but they’ve named it that so that’s what it has become. Admittedly you can’t see much of the pond so you’ll have to use your imagination. I’ve produced this as a present for their new house. It’s pastel on canvas about 3 foot by 2 and a half feet in old money.

PS. I love a nice sky.

    You didn’t elaborate on how the pond came to be named after “Atha”…there may be an interesting story behind that! I love the vivid hues in this picture!

      Atha is my daughter’s married name they named the lake (note not pond!) after themselves. Some people.

    It is a lake not a pond… Atha Lake sounds much more impressive!
    It really is a beautiful piece of artwork – your son in law is clearly very lucky to have such a wonderful artist as his Mother in Law…

    Its Atha’s lake!! Pond makes it sound like a much smaller body of water…
    Anyway, it is absolutely beautiful and i am sure your son in law will be very grateful to own such a wonderful piece of artwork…
