Lavender Scented Hens (30x40cm)
**Words by Amber L-J**
This is a scene that I hope to wake up to each morning. When my eyes are closed, I can transport myself to sunny days in the British countryside.
There are white beams of light through each window, not ceasing until late into the evening. The days are long and sleepily warm, as not to exert yourself; Whether that is from the sunbed with a book, or a picnic on the bright gingham tablecloth, or a dinner party where champagne flutes clink in celebration, you so often find yourself outside. As your skin browns, it seems as if your physicality absorbs your surroundings.
There is nothing better than that feeling of opening the door and the strong waft of French lavender, vibrant and quick to flower, greeting you. Its calming influence subdues the mind.
The hens of my garden are happy little souls, strolling up the gravel path, hoping to explore inside further. But I will be leaving my house to meet them, to follow their forked footprints from their morning venture.
I think of this memory all year round, appealing to my weary, wintery soul until the snow melts and the flowers flourish.
Coming home is so safe and familiar, but I am excited to go, to step out into the exquisite unknown.

Lavender Scented Hens is an original acrylic painting, which measures at 40cm height x 30cm width. It was painted onto a 3.5cm-Depth Box Canvas, which stands out on any wall of the home. It was painted by Lisa as an appealing and enjoyable scene every season. It is also featured as part of the Artist Support Pledge.
The #ArtistSupportPledge is an initiative which was started by artist Matthew Burrows, whereby artworks are offered for sale at £200 and under (plus postage). When an artist reaches a total of £1,000 of sales, they pledge to buy another artist’s work to keep the initiative going. Anyone, not just artists, can buy through this pledge, taking advantage of pieces specifically selected at reduced rates for the pledge. This artwork is no exception.
Lavender Scented Hens: Artist Support Pledge
This is a beautiful yet familiar scene, set from the front doorway of Lisa’s home. It is also very popular amongst audiences, as Lisa states:
“People love these hen paintings [and] lose themselves in a peaceful world of clucking!”
This soft colour palette of this painting is particularly ‘peaceful’, as the hens walk amongst lavender and towards the viewer. It is very dreamlike, with natural light illuminating the long, winding path and coming through the open door. One can easily immerse themselves within the British countryside, as part of a sensory awakening – from the buzzing bees and ‘clucking hens’ to the comforting aroma of lavender.
