- This expressive, unique work by the renowned contemporary British artist Anita Reynolds is titled 'The Three Copses of Wistman's Wood'. It refers to the prehistoric, legendary dwarf oak forest of Wistman's Wood in Dartmoor National Park (Devon, England). This ancient woodland is divided into three distinct sections (copses). Reynolds, who is a core tutor at the prestigious Newlyn School of Art in Cornwall and celebrated for her energetic outdoor art-making, uses powerful, dynamic lines to capture the mystical, windswept atmosphere of this piece of ancient woodland filled with gnarled trees and granite boulders. A beautiful and rare unique collector's piece.
