This work was inspired by Springtime walks in morning mist when insects begin stirring and the first flowers of the year begin to bloom. This is part of a series of works inspired by Beacon Hill and Charnwood Forest in Leicestershire, UK. Some of the series is totally abstract while others are closer to recognisable landscapes. I want to express the feel and mood of the place rather than depict a specific location. My work is more about my internal thoughts than the external view. The landscape is only a starting point for the work. I hope the finished paintings have universal appeal rather than only being of interest to a person who knows the particular area. This painting began as an experiment with cold wax mixed into the oil paint. Once the wax had dried I then laid many thin glazes of oils over the surface to create a translucent effect in contrast with the thick impasto areas. My main references are JMW Turner, Monet and contemporary artists Chu Te Chun, Zao Wou-Ki, Darren Waterston, Lissa Bockwrath, Chris Rivers, Ella Baudinet and Cruz Jimenez. I hope the viewer can feel a sense of nature ‘waking up’ as the mist gradually clears and the viewer’s eyes adjust and find tiny details. The painting is framed with a white frame. Size including frame is 49cm x 41cm x 4cm

United Kingdom
I was born in Kent, UK and have lived in London, Leicester and Auckland, New Zealand. I studied Graphic Design and worked as a designer for 25 years, juggling running a design practice with painting and exhibiting my art. Gradually the art has taken over from the design and I’ve been a full time artist since 2016.
