Hawthorn, Sloe, Liquid Iron, Soda, Docktips and Alum on Cotton Canvas
24 x 30

These works were created in response to the changing colours of the hedgerows in Autumn. Slow berries burst with ripeness along country roads, hawthorn berries can be seen lighting up the boundary lines between fields, and dock leaves stand tall as their chlorophyll fades and they turn a beautiful rusty colour. These three natural materials were synthesised into ink, creating a warm spectrum of colours which were then modified using iron oxide and aluminium sulphate directly on the surface of the painting.

All natural colours produced are organic and living. Every effort will be made to preserve the lightfastness of the colours, however there is no guarantee the colours will not change over a long time. You are advised to keep the paintings away from direct sunlight and to enjoy observing them if they do change.
