The Stream, Ingram Valley Mounted Print 16 x 12

The Stream, Ingram Valley captures the raw, open beauty of one of Northumberland’s most peaceful landscapes. A winding stream cuts through the valley floor, its silvery surface alive with movement, reflections, and the gentle pull of the current as it leads the eye towards distant hills softened by mist.

This acrylic painting is rich in atmosphere and texture. Cool greys and whites swirl through the water, contrasted by the deep dark rocks and the earthy warmth of bracken and heather along the banks. On the right, vivid green grass breaks through the seasonal browns and reds, bringing balance and freshness to the scene.

The sweeping hillside dominates the composition, painted in layered tones of ochre, rust, moss, and stone, giving the landscape a rugged, lived-in character. A dry-stone wall stretches across the middle distance, grounding the painting in the unmistakable heritage of the Northumbrian countryside, while bare winter trees on the left add a quiet sense of solitude and stillness.

Both expansive and intimate, The Stream, Ingram Valley Print is a celebration of wild space, fresh air, and the timeless calm of the Cheviot landscape. It is an ideal piece for anyone who loves the outdoors, walking country valleys, and the quiet magic of Northumberland’s hidden places.
