Walk to the Lower Falls (south bank of the Ure)

Julie is inspired by the local environment around the Yorkshire Dales, whilst out walking.

Living in Aysgarth, Wensleydale, Julie is fascinated by the effects of light through the trees and reflecting off water, diffused light through leaves, and the reflection of light onto branches overhanging the river.

Tunnels of overhanging trees create magical worlds. Roots and branches that have been undercut by the powerful water, create gothic twists and turns like unravelling Celtic knots.

Julie records memories of what has been seen, felt, and experienced, using emotional colour that responds to the feelings and sensations of being immersed in this spectacular landscape.
