About the artwork
“Hilltop Village” presents a marvellous seaside scene of quaint white houses overlooking the deep sea water. The combination of colors - blue, green and white, together with a pop of contrasting red - creates a calm and contemplative mood. Ronnie Ford recreates the tranquil atmosphere of a hilltop village overlooking the sea, rather than its mere physical characteristics. The emotional and spiritual side of the artwork is contained in the subtle outlines of the houses, the vibrant textures of the bushes, and the expressive horizon line where the sky meets the sea.
