WILKINS, William Powell

            This painting is set in a small woody grove in Carmarthenshire, surrounded and sheltered by trees. Dappled light falls through the leaves, illuminating the grass and wildflowers on the woodland floor. The largest tree on the left of the painting is coated in soft green moss, and rises up majestically from the ground. 
William Wilkins was brought up in south Wales, and has a studio in Carmarthenshire. He paints using a technique called pointillism, which means painting with small dots of colour. This technique can be seen when we look at this painting up close.
