Derbyshire Sunrise Art Painting

This Derbyshire sunrise art painting features Mellor Moor, on the edge of Derbyshire, where two paths meet and part by the remains of an ancient cross. A document of lockdown walks at dawn in a place which holds a special significance. The sun rises over Kinder Scout and reflects in the puddles on the old turnpike roads. The remains of the medieval cross, which now forms part of the dry stone wall, marks the county boundary between Derbyshire and Cheshire. Walking in the quiet of the early morning, thinking of those who have walked here before, and taking solace from nature.
