Welcome to Paintings of Rutland - England by Alan Oliver

In Barnsdale Wood

I have painted scenes in this beautiful county for over 40 years. I live in the county town of Oakham, a town steeped in history. It has a fine castle building and a superb church.

The well-known Oakham public school was founded here, as was another public school in Uppingham the other fine town in the county.

The surrounding villages are full of charm and historic buildings.

I have planned a series of Workshops at Rutland Water Egleton Centre, Oakham.

They are all on a Wednesday from 10am to 1pm at a cost of £30 per session.

Please see 'Workshops 2012' page for more details.
