Oil on 14x18 hardboard — Kevin Hill design painted by Hope Blakely
There’s a soft hush to this painting… the kind you hear only in places where history sleeps. Song of the Emerald Ruins was inspired by Hope’s deep love of castles and her travels through Ireland, where ancient stone walls rise unexpectedly from bright green meadows and misty water paths twist quietly through the landscape. Painted in a Kevin Hill workshop in Clarksville, Tennessee, this piece captures that perfect blend of romantic ruin, gentle light, and the soothing sound of a wandering stream. It feels like stepping into a place where time slows down — where every stone still remembers its story.
