Part of the Note series, a body of work inspired by repeated walks through the South Downs. As with other paintings in the series, musicality and landscape are intertwined: the horizontal lines running across the surface echo the structure of a musical stave, where the rhythms of walking, weather and terrain meet the inner rhythms of thought and memory.
The muted palette, soft greens, pale ochres, and worn earth tones, creates a sense of surfaces aged by time and exposure. Embedded eggshell fragments and small canvas patches punctuate the painting like traces left behind, while scratch marks, erasures and reworked passages speak to the layered history of the piece. The result is a painting that feels archaeological and intimate, inviting slow looking and touch.
Medium: Mixed media on wood panel — acrylics, oils, canvas patches, eggshell
Dimensions: 41 × 30 cm
Series: Note
Finish: Wax varnish to enhance tactility
