Water and the Night - Perspectives from The Artist's RoadWater and the Night Perspectives from The Artist’s Road
Painting outdoors in the night reawakens childhood memories of nighttime adventures with my brothers and sisters. With no adults around, it was our special world of imagination and play. We made up games which relied on the concealments of the darkness. These days, I am still exploring the concealments of night in my nocturne paintings. Working outdoors at night opens up all the senses to the new sounds, smells and mysterious shapes and shadows which supplant the familiar daytime world.
