'Woodscape #6' (finished)

‘Woodscape #6’  oil on canvas/24″ x 48″/March – April 2017

Brought to some form of resolution on Saturday afternoon, the latest in the series of painterly representations of the experience of being present in the local ‘Maes y Pant’ woodland, with the habitual emphasis on the process of explicit mark-making (with a preponderance of horizontal and vertical brush strokes relating to the edges of the picture plane in best modernist fashion) in the service of realising a visually ‘haptic’ surface, the basis of the image content betraying an autumnally-captured source.
