Blue Grass/Pathway (9) On Board

107x122 Oil On Board
The present body of work was stimulated by pathways. In particular rural pathways / by-ways that cut through the landscape, not necessarily the main by-ways but those minor tracks formed not only by footfall, but also by the animals and the local wildlife. There is a poetry in the way that a track cuts through the random structure of the grass, a lyrical resonance where the path converges with grass. Paths by their very nature are transitional and there is a discourse that is inevitable with the subject that resonates with ideas of yearning and choices.
