Artist’s Statement
We are earth’s caretakers. Thoughts, feelings and actions feed into our holistic reality, all contributing to our shared consciousness. And nature, which we are such a small, recent part of, can be an infinite source of joy, harmonising minds and bodies.
On a small scale, art works - whether poems and pictures, songs and sculptures or parks and gardens - can all add into this creative dialogue, adding to the best medicines for life.
Medical surveys reveal that time spent outside, glimpses of trees, or green views from hospital windows can give hope to enhance health. Where this is not available, a painting can help, acting as a catalyst providing an expanded view point, a link with the natural world.
Key factors in nature, suns and moons, land and water, are part of our cultural heritage. Our connections with sun light and tree growth are vital, grounding factors. Intuitive love of our living environment can offset the dangers of the technical world. IT may undermine our slow growing and limited emotional stability. Cold hearted races for power and money need safe counterpoints. We need balance.
‘Mysuntrees’ lets people play with their favourite colours and nature symbols to describe their own inner-sources of motivation, and private sources of peace.
A collection of over forty large, colourful canvasses designed to calm or energise are matched by thirty smaller Game Pieces. These are made from mixed materials, hopefully stimulating thoughts about life. Again, hopefully, there is something for everyone.
Traditional links with our planet are described in ‘CREATIVITY: Nature and Us. Exploring Green themes through the Arts.’ Available on Amazon and Kindle. Hopefully this may feed into your own creatively evolving and expanding beliefs, your experiments with existence.
