New Works
Lower Gallery - Saturday 21 April - Saturday 26 May 2007
These new paintings are a response to the Welsh landscape, its dramatic rolling clouds, melancholy skies and rough churned seas.
If you look at my paintings closely you will see layer upon layer of oil paint. I build up the surface and take away in the same organic way that time transforms the landscape we live in. Seasons come and go but the fundamental and eternal cycle of nature, her inherent beauty and obvious majesty is what grips me. To work in the landscape, to try to fathom nature and to strive to understand the brevity of our own situation is both humbling and inspiring.
The walk along the cliffs in Llangrannog and the magnificent views on the Preseli mountains are my inspiration. These are gestural images, offering a personal view of transcendent nature.
