Awakening
After the most glorious summer holidays, full of lovely days, and, having been lucky enough to visit both Paris and Cornwall, I return back to the studio with a new awakening of the full spectrum of colour. Days spent visiting galleries, including the d’Orsay, studying the brushwork and colours that sing with joy by the masters of Impressionism were such a feast for the eyes. Their pictures tell a thousand words. I wanted to take their loose lines and contrasting tones and add them to my new work.
My inspiration wasn’t just from those masterpieces but long days spent with my best buddies exploring our chalk grasslands, the shapes of the hills and the smiles upon the land, taking delight in the beds of flowers which peek-a-booand give standing ovations. My camera roll is full of their petals in full bloom all flourishing together.
As the Summer days turn into autumn, the nights falls quickly with the enveloping light giving us the finest of hours as the sun dips below the horizon. A real poetry of place that feels almost like a dream with the ever changing skies, from sun-kissed rain to hunter's moon, prompting my every move with a brush. Then the October blooms giving glory to the garden as the colder days approach and as they fade we fill our home with freshly picked stems given with love and bringing us a Ta-dah, with a cheerful pot of happiness.
