Set against an illuminated backdrop of slender young trees, the cool verdant foreground.

February 15th, 2010“Top Path, Bishops Court Glen”
Monotype 1/1. Image size 400x400mm
A gentle spiral leads in from the wild garlic bank on the left and across the shadowed path. The ascending sunlit leaves of the saplings on the right carry the loop on over the path via the middle ground foliage, through the dark tree trunks to the full sunlight of an open clearing beyond. All the elements lead us to the pleasure of the warmth of full, open sunlight.

February 15th, 2010“Saplings, Bishops Court Glen”
Monotype 1/1. Image Size 400x400mm.
The light seems to slide around the saplings as they rise slender limbed to whip like branches. These tipped with half furled illuminated leaves, give a faery dance of light to the wild garlic bedecked glade. A compelling contrast to the ivy clad evergreen trunks, drinking the light in with an exact measure of their mighty trunks.

Rock Pool 2
February 15th, 2010“Rock Pool 2″
Monotype 1/1. Image size 400x400mm
The weight of the black rock blended with the silvery lightness of the smoother rock is a wonderful counterpoise. It has the underpinning design of an apposite “yin-yang” composition. This integrated complexity is the fractal quality inherent in the universe and it is this quality that has risen to the surface as the subject in this work of an almost abstracted nature.

Monotype 1/1. Image size 400x400mm.
Swathed in sun-kissed crashing waves the cliffs and craggy rocks below, a delightful stormy bright day. Though tousled sheeps wool is caught fast to briar still, this is a good day to blow the cobwebs away.
This view is from the coast between Port Grenaugh and Santon Gorge on the Island. Many of the Seascapes I have made into monotypes so far are from this beautiful stretch of coastline.

Monotype 1/1. Image Size 400x400mm
Fertility and awesome rite of passage to this world leaps to meet the eye in this visceral work. The body of rock baring the scars and patina of birth. Belly cupping the waters of life brimming with potentiality. A birthing pool replenished by sun on the sea. The Moon, tidal midwife in attendance.

Monotype 1/1. Image size 400x400mm
The precise line of the distant horizon accumulates clouds.Waves tumble toward the foreshore of the beach at Port Cornaa. Their steady swell backed march foiled only by a line of black rocks, the reaching arms of which are hugging a wave to spray.
