Bursting with New Life £190

This is one of a series of 5 paintings that all emerged from time spent in one particular set of fields near me. Looking, drawing; noticing what particularly sparked my interest and honing in on that. I used collage to define the composition, wanting to keep a more pared back approach but with a sense of a living, breathing landscape.

I had been experimenting with collage in cardboard in the run up to this series, that feeds into this painting as some of the shapes and details are raised from the surface giving the landscape a 3-dimensional quality.
