And you will rise again

Painted on Arches Huile paper, protected with a clear wax coat, mounted on board and framed with a St Ives tray frame in white wood which measures 8cm.

A painting of hope. That feeling when the sun breaks through. This is a view up to the mouth of the Helford River. I love the vista across the farm fields to the magical water ahead. The grass shimmers in the early morning light, shaking off the blue shadows of night and dew, and picking up the warmer hues of the sun. I use layers of paint lightly applied to create this shimmer impression, it’s like the painting is alive.
