Colours of the earth come together alla prima on the canvas, inspired by the complexity and depths of our planet, mostly hidden from the naked eye. Fascinated by the rich layers that make up the fabric of our lives, this painting is an exploration into and an expression of these beautiful layers. The paint itself formed part of the story as it was allowed to blend, to touch and in some places to wander almost freely across the canvas with the pull of gravity as it moved to settle in its own way.
