Artist Statement

This print is part of a series which was made after I spent some time living off-grid in an eighty-acre Welsh oak woodland.

The woodland bath is to be found at the bottom of the valley where the oak stand tall and the beech magnificent. From the north running river we fill the bath and collect wood to light a fire underneath the cast iron bath. 

It is a beautiful setting; trees towering, river babbling,  steam rising, birdsong or if at night, stars twinkling. The Milkyway wondrously sweeps over the clearing up the hill. It is truly Romantic, immersed as one is, beholden to and a part of nature. 

I am interested in differences of rhythm, tempo and repetition, and how they produce irregularity in marks, layers; also colours and their inherent instability.

Moving into the poetic realm, it is the the spirit of nature and the poetry of this immersive experience that I seek to convey in my work.
