Landscape and Nature

 

1982-1985

 

In the early 1980s I made paintings of increasingly abstracted  atmospheric landscapes. These were inspired by the northern coast and moor land of my childhood.  I used watercolour and acrylic washes to build up layers of thin colour, working in a variety of scales, from 15cm to over 200cm high.

I tried to use relatively large marks and sweeps of colour even on the biggest  pieces to keep the sensation of the solid masses being

dissolved in the mist and rain.
