Where no testimonial is available, a brief description is included to share the story behind each piece.
Roses
The moment I saw this painting on your website, I fell in love with it. I had it framed, and it has pride of place in our lounge. We love the vibrancy and how it captures the heart and soul of the rose, in such a unique way.
When it arrived, it looked far more beautiful than on the website. Anyone thinking of ordering a painting online will not be disappointed.
Gateway to Hawes
Upper Wensleydale is a wonderful painting with a view to the moorland in the distance above a wooden footpath gate through a dry-stone wall. The picture with its composition and colours is much admired by us and visitors alike, and brings back memories of our many walks in Wensleydale.
Mist Over Lake Buttermere
We were delighted to purchase a wonderful painting from Charles a few years ago which holds pride of place in our hallway. He is such an exceptional artist and has captured the graphic detail of the landscape perfectly. He is also a lovely man to deal with - a true gentleman.
Woodland
Yorkshire Dales is a beautifully constructed painting of a scene along a peaceful stream through a wooded glade in the Yorkshire Dales. It includes a planked bridge to allow walkers to cross the stream. We have been on walks through woodland many times and this painting brings back those memories. It is composed with so many shades of green reflecting the light on the grassy banks and in the stream with the shadows on the trees that give the painting a really magical appearance.
The Mist
I love this beautiful painting. I feel the peace and joy of this atmospheric moment and beautiful place. Bold colour hues, with warm light glowing and reflecting throughout, are beautifully combined with the gentle softness of the mist.
Charles you are such an inspirational, expressive artist and I love to connect with and enjoy all your incredible artwork. I am so lucky to have this painting. I enjoy it every day. Thank you Charles
Seascape
I just wanted to leave a quick review of my painting by Charles Parry.
The painting is of a beautiful coastline and the use of texture, really brings the water to life. The painting gives a real feeling of calm from both the landscape and the sea. With such a delightful mix of colour and shade, the painting has a charming, realistic feel to it and looks beautiful in my dining room. I receive many compliments on my painting.
Whitby Harbour and Calm Waters
I chose two paintings by Charles, although I could easily chosen more from his wonderful collection. I was drawn to the colours of a lovely little seascape at sunset with a contrasting boat in a bay surrounded by rugged cliffs. It called to me and evoked many memories of the Yorkshire coastline and the part the sea had played in my life.
The other painting was a contrast, a beautiful painting of the seaside town of Whitby that again brought back so many happy childhood memories. It’s bright and colourful and so detailed showing off Charles artistic skills and talent. It’s recognisable immediately. Both have been much admired by visitors to my home.
Lindisfarne and Tug on the River Esk
What fantastic paintings. Already up on the walls and being enjoyed. We are so glad that we were able to purchase the originals of these paintings before you put them into the upcoming exhibition.
The Lindisfarne Castle painting was for my wife Iris’s birthday and she loves it to bits. The Tug on the River Esk was for both of us. We only wish that we had discovered your paintings earlier. Will keep in touch.
