A sculptural painting inspired by architectural forms and textures. Partly gilded and partly painted in rich sepia and umber tones.
Lines have been engraved into the surface which contrast the organic curves of the wood grain.

9mm thick lasercut Poplar plywood with gold coloured gilding and acrylic. Spacer blocks behind to create a floating effect and pleasing shadow.
Ready to hang.

My long standing interest in landscape and architecture have always inspired me. Vernacular buildings, both rural and urban, domestic and functional, have found a place in my work for some time, no doubt also informed by time as an architectural technician. I am particular drawn to the triangular form of the gable ends of buildings, whether they be simple sheds, northern terraces, suburban 1960’s bungalows, barns or industrial warehouses.

"The landscape is my starting point, not as a picturesque or static view, but as a space travelled through and experienced often on the edges of the urban and rural. It is a source of man made and natural structures, surfaces
and colour from which my reductive personal responses develop. I am inspired by distant horizons, the silhouettes of trees and rooftops contrasting expanses of sky interrupted by power lines, and by the architectural forms of vernacular buildings."
