Water Paintings
In the early spring when
the trees were leafless and overhanging the river in Trevaylor woods I was drawn to the water's stark reflective
surface. The exacting reflection of the shadows of trees, and the
water's translucency interplayed between forms and illusions. Each
shift in the light and angle of the sun brought new imagery and
sensations, and it became an endless journey through continuous
change - restless and inconclusive, but completely compelling. These
paintings arose from the power of insubstantiality and the relative
nature of phenomena, but I hope to have also caught something
more.
