Nature is My Rest. My Calm. is a collection of abstract landscapes that explore the feeling of being immersed in nature rather than simply observing it. Inspired by changing light, layered vegetation and the quiet rhythms of the natural world, the paintings evolve intuitively through layers of colour, texture and gesture. Recent artist residencies in Australia and France have influenced a growing emphasis on atmosphere, space and air, creating works that encourage a slower way of looking, where each viewer is free to bring their own memories and experiences to the paintings.
