stacking of landscape imagery

The differences between the distant,
middle ground and the fauna at our feet
are composed on canvas or board through the stacking of different forms of landscape imagery. Fields of tall wild floral plants or their seed-heads, grasses expand skyward and rushes and reed in a wild pond create a distinct spatial element in the foreground or middle distance.
This layering of distance, with the sky and distant hills is abstracted and expressed through paint, pastel or drawing materials and sometimes other parts.

a more ethereal looming atmosphere

Other landscape views are often created with the lights and colours of sunshine.

In contrast, wooded views provide a vehicle to depict the density of light and shade and, with this mysterious energy,
the depth and richness of dark tones.

The entire experience of being in the heart of a woodland enhances the artist's creative vision, from feelings of
shelter and sanctuary and grandeur and majesty of the wooded expanse from 
the woodland floor to the reach
and stretch skyward.
