The Way In / Rural Scene Print

In one sense I wanted to portray a fairly traditional scene, albeit in an expressionistic style, of fields backing on to the edge of a small bridge over water leading to the edge of a forest. I used Indian ink, acrylic paint and alcohol on clay board to get a fluid feel to the painting as I wanted to convey the illusory nature of what we see and take for granted. I'm fascinated by pathways and forests, they make great metaphors for choices we make in life and the uncertainty we sometimes feel. On a deeper level, I wanted to create a sense of spirituality, myth and folklore (forests are used in many fairytales) to investigate the primitive thoughts that arise in us from time to time, those moments when we sense something intangible about the conscious and unconscious mind.
