The coloured grounds are going on.
.
Which made me think of Craigie Aitchison.
.
And the spiritually uplifting nature of colour.

I wake most days thinking of Bill Lynch.
.
“In these pictures everything is alive and communicating wildly. Lynch’s connection to subjects and
landscapes, both in life and painting, was empathic: a flower or tree branch sings just as strongly as
any bird; likewise a pre-Columbian vessel in spiritual communion with a Chinese philosopher’s
stone or a pair of Paleolithic-era rubber-stamped Venuses—and he listened acutely, transcribing
their conversation so you could hear it too. Their secrets opened up to him. Everywhere is meaning.
Surrounded by his work, you can’t help but be struck by this vibrant language; his sincere belief, his
love. .

18 pieces
Clay/ watercolour
in various configurations
.
Which are part of an ongoing series..
I like to think of them as part of a musical garden or notes for a musical score

I came across this painting today whilst ‘lesson planning’
It’s humble & simple (cross curricular stuff)
But if you look closely the observation is loose and precise
