Wind 1

Inspired by the fragility and erosion of Ireland’s coastline. I started painting outside. I harnessed the power of the wind and used mixed media and seeds and wildflowers I gathered on my walks.  Back inside my studio, I allowed paint to evaporate slowly into tidelines of pigment. I repeated this process over several weeks to create overlapping, translucent layers. It’s a slow meditative process. Forms are transitory, evolving and fragile.
