Looking out towards the Coast Guard Cottages on the Sussex Coast, this painting captures the last bend in the river before it disappears into the sea, which the sky reflecting the water, forming a continuum with the landscape and the river, its wildness captured using strong colours and gestural marks.

Delighted to have this painting long listed out of an incredible 5634 for Jackson’s Painting Prize 2020.
‘All the world’s a stage’ is inspired by the picnics at Glyndebourne. A unique place and landscape, filled with fascinating characters and filled with a constantly changing dialogue of body language of the people as they dine and converse. In the midst of the high dramatics and emotion of operas they reenter the wider stage of the world still connected to the otherworldly music and stories through their own unlikely juxtapositions of attire and elegant culinary experience. The colours are as unworldly as the operas themselves.

Fog everywhere. Fog on the Sussex Heathlands. Fog on the Ashdowne Forest. Fog in the eyes and mouth of the dog standing on the ice. Fog surrounding the dogs owner, who is anxiously looking out across the ice. Fog freezing fingers and toes. Crows disappear into the fog.

Krakens adrift on the vast ocean below looming storm clouds. Container ships, creatures of the sea, undertaking vast journeys to make modern lives possible. Stoically weathering whatever storms may come their way.

The trees are bare symbolising a harsh life on the edge of death. A sheep the daily observer to their story, as they are gently bowed over years by the Westerly winds, and also a curious observer to our passing gaze on the brutal beauty of everyday existence in this empty landscape.
