Haven (2010)
Acrylic on canvas, 24”x24”
This is the world I want to help create, these are the trees I want to grow on, and these are the creatures I want to share my life with... the poet David Whyte talks of a friend in the mountains of Wales who said “I love this place so much, I’ve found my place to die”. What a revolutionary idea in this day and age of questing and seaching, to feel so much a part of a landscape, to nourish it and be nourished by it, and then finally to become one with it, body and soul. I believe it might be possible to do this while we're still alive.
