About this artwork
This painting is about the natural sanctuary I encounter when I walk in my local woodland at dusk. Because, especially at this time, the woods are quiet and more wildlife is present, and in the fading light I feel that I am in a temple of trees. I have tried to convey the awe I feel, seeing the reflected shadows of trees silhouetted against the deep blue of the evening sky. I have chosen to draw attention to wild water and to the luminous, quiet…
places where water-bound ecosystems try to flourish in this era of ubiquitous pollution. This painting is a meditative, visual immersion in water surface and light, exploring the interaction of these two elements.
