Jon Bowen, ‘Wood and Water’, Pastel on Paper, 1991.
Look and look and look and look and look, and finally look again. I love making these decorative pastels, and get totally absorbed in my surroundings. But I’ve only sold a couple over the years. At first I used to anxt that they were crap, but after this one was stolen in 1995 I realised that it’s just that self-styled honest hard-working folk can’t bear to hand over their money to ‘lazy hippies’. At least I don’t have to find somewhere to store it any more!
