The Blue/Green Water Pulls You Down into . .

Blue/Green water always has the effect of pulling me down toward it – especially if it’s a hot day and I have the urge to peel off and jump in!

This painting – painted a few years ago shows the effect of the ‘down and into’ pull that I experience at such times. Fortunately the horizon of the picture also pulls the viewer back up again toward the sky.
Much of my work has this dual perspective – and occasionally viewers are disturbed. But generally this is not the case, and they see where I’m coming from.
Hopefully you do too!
Have a great day,
Steve

Enter a magical Forest and imagine . . .

Imagination plays a great part in creating art like this. I usually begin with something I’ve seen – but before long the painting transforms itself into a place of dreams.

I just can’t help this happening – unless I really try hard. But even then it never works fully!

The painting shown here was originally begun in a place called Friendship Woods – not far from where I live in Cornwall, UK. But the trees have somehow grown taller, and the whole woodland taken on the enchantment of a magical forest!

Anyway I don’t worry about it these days, as you can always take a photograph if you really want reality. 

Have a great day,

Steve
