Woodland paintings & tree portraits

Ric has created many beautiful paintings of Blean woods over the years, highlighting the stunning natural wonders on our doorstep. He hopes to bring awareness to this area’s unique energy, important heritage and the need for protection.

Blean Woods Nature Reserve is an ancient, semi-natural woodland recognised as site of international importance for wildlife, situated to the north of Canterbury. It has recently come into the firing line as the University of Kent has proposed building a new development of 2,000 houses, shops and offices on a 100 acre greenfield site in the heart of this beautiful area.

He has produced greeting cards of some of his original paintings. You can order them from the link below:
