Making images from collecting pigments, beeswax and having made charcoal I embarked on these paintings. I had to purchase the blue in a tube, other hues are fabricated by myself. I found this challenging and interesting at the same time. Working on hessian and using rabbit skin size, it isn’t a veggie option but as someone who also has had a life as a land worker it made sense. I am interested in what becomes of memory when you look back on these moments of countryside immersion. Walking/trespassing/collecting. It is an ongoing process.
The square painting is 500x500mm and the long one is 2500x1000mm.
