Lots of Forest based Art work has resulted in several ‘Silver Birch’ works. Nature abstracted and the energy of the essence of Nature itself. Pollock referred to ‘ energy and motion made visible ‘ which is relevant to my thoughts.
So we have EC202 ‘Silver Birch #6’

walking in morning light across fields and being caught in a shower of rain.
A total involvement in everything. A pictorial Poem to convey the experience of ‘Qiyan’ a Daoist aesthetic. Everything seemed to be moving and changing.
So we have EC 167 ‘Summer Rain’

EC 273 ‘ in yellow ‘
A response to reviewing the Art of Unkoku Toeki.
Also -
The Japanese concept of "ma" (間). If time is restricted, if we have no space we cannot breath, we cannot grow. Thoughts on finding that space - free of noise. Every day so we can function.

Looking at landscape and thinking about the slow geological changes over millennia.Thinking about the artistic ideas of Shizen 自然.
I always feel strangely mystical looking at an evening landscape.
We humans are in the position of being between placed Heaven and Earth

EC 352 ‘ The Conservatory’
We painters think a lot about composition, space, line etc. This is me : ‘ can we please STOP trying to sanitize , organize and oversimplify! There must be ‘Qi ‘.Energy,- life itself. Please .. !
Respect to Shen Zhou who helps me think.

EC 256 Japanese Garden #2
A playing with the principles of ‘Haboku’ or ‘splashed Ink’. An allowing of space and freedom in application of colour while considering principles of the Japanese aesthetic.
Amazing how it ‘works’ ..

I even have a collection of photos of Pavements. Where I live they are lovely abstract compositions - .. I think 😎
The ‘here and now’ is a wonderful thing. An exercise in making oneself intensely aware of the ‘now’ .

Loving the ideas of Classical Japanese colour theory using Red, Black & White. ‘Kuro (黒) Shiro (白 ) and Aka (赤) .. I enthusiastically created many abstract compositions. To see if they ‘say’ anything .. Loving the direct effective simplicity.

Always been an admirer of the seemingly effortless swirling landscapes of Tang & Song dynasty- ( Zhao Menfu - Wang Hui - Zhao Min)
Also the atmospheric landscapes of Samual Palmer ( eg. ‘ The Valley with Corn ) - so I thought I would pick up a black pen and imagine something.

Feeling inspired by Kirchner woodblock prints and wonderful black and white work of Kiyoshi Saito ( Winter in Aizu ) - I pick up my best black pen. Marks & lines straight from the imagination.
