Mystery of The Three Hares

A new painting & poem of mine inspired by the Three Hares bosses in our churches in Devon. The poem reads:- The stars dust you in their mystery. Your meaning lost in the depths of history. Your image through artists eyes evolved. Your secrets will remain unsolved. I have done two very different versions of this painting which can be seen here in my gallery in Chagford or by looking at my website www.devonsnatureinart.com

The Three Hares of North Bovey

This is my oil painting of St John the Baptist Church in the lovely village of North Bovey on Dartmoor, as you can see I have painted the Three Hares boss which is located in the ceiling of the church exactly as it is. This is one of the 17 churches on my Three Hares Trail and a lovely place to visit.

The Three Hares of Paignton

The Church of St John the Baptist in Paignton has a very fine and beautifully painted Three Hares boss, the church itself is well worth a visit tucked away in an ancient part of Paignton it is made out of the red sandstone of Devon. It is the most southerly church on my trail.

St Mary's, Kelly

This romantic little church is found in the remote village of Kelly which is between Tavistock and Launceston. It is the furthest West on my Three Hares Trail and has one ancient wooden carved boss of the Three Hares and a nice modern copy. It is well worth a visit.

Three Hares of Tavistock

We were over in Tavistock yesterday taking more of my Three Hares Trail leaflets to St Eustachius Church where there is a lovely carved & painted Three Hares Boss as seen above in my painting of the church. More leaflets can be obtained through my gallery in Chagford and the trail is a great thing to do!
