About This Image

I’ve read that there are a number of Cotswolds villages like Lacock, in England. These were villages where the local industry died out and the village became stuck in time centuries ago. They could never afford to modernize – a good fortune for the tourist trade today.

I have never read the full details of Lacock’s past but if you’ve been, you know that it’s a village where you really do feel as if you’ve been transported into England’s past. It’s only the cars and such that really remind you that you’re in the 21st century. In fact, I’ve heard that a number of period British dramas are filmed in this village and even some segments of the popular Harry Potter films.

I had a brief but memorable time wandering those picturesque streets. My amble concluded at the entrance to the village church in Lacock. This is the Church of Saint Cyriac. There’s been a church here for much longer, but the Perpendicular Gothic village church we see today dates from the 15th century, a period when Lacock was flourishing from profits from the wool trade.

I was mesmerized when I saw this classic old village church. To me, the Church of St Cyriac was the very picture of a English village church. It has a very old world English charm surrounding it. Standing there before the church gate, you could easily forget this isn’t somehow a print from the 15th century rather than the 21st. It was also very plain why they like to film period films here!

I love the little details in this village church print. In particular, I like the sign telling visitors to come in next to the open gate. And then the repetition of the open church door at the end of the path. There’s a very welcoming and charming feel to this quaint English village scene. Don’t you agree?

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
