The Hearts of Cattle

Piece description from the artist

Made in Bruton, England, the image includes roadside raspberries, an undulating landscape, the sound of jackdaws and mourning doves and a diminutive truck troubled by cattle. My landscape paintings are propelled by a number of things, including the love of paint and abstraction, but most importantly, by a desire to do my part to help make the changes in philosophy that are required if humanity is to create a sustainable future. By studying the land and responding to it freshly, I hope to demonstrate attachment, respect and engagement. And if the paintings are good enough, they will find their way into public life to do their job of representing the joy of living in the world and the wonder of perceiving it, and if they succeed at this, to evoke the will to create balance within it.

This is a TurningArt exclusive limited edition print available in editions of 100.
