A search for a way of realising an idea in paint and allowing the paint to have a will of its own and having the sense to realise that in the nick of time...hopefully. How we decay. Our artefacts, cars, possessions, ideas, ourselves. We come from the earth, and the earth comes from the stars and so do we.

a sequence showing the buildup of the image. What dominates this image for me is the initial choice of colour. I very rarely use this green and find that with the (initial) cobalt blue that it was too garish and lively but with french ultramarine became more exotic. As though I was now in a rain forest, not a wet wood in Surrey. The painting has its own life. Again when painting this image there is the possibility of discovering what is underneath. Not very different from walking in a wood in Surrey.
