Description
In this painting, as in all my paintings, I have found my inspiration from nature, from places around me and from events that have an effect on these things.
I was influenced in this painting by the current debate over fracking and what this could mean to the environment of our country. I have been following the reports of the dangers of fracking to our, up until now, pristine water, and I have realised how vulnerable even the very ground can be.
The images are stylised with thick outlines, but have been made to appear three dimensional by use of shading and highlights. The objects are surrounded by what appear to be bubbles but are they bubbles of water or gas? The objects themselves can be interpreted as rocks or even particles of earth, seen as if under a microscope. The painting of the bubbles is influenced also by our indigenous peoples method of dot painting, in recognition of the way they preserved the integrity of this land.
This work captures the beauty of the most mundane, showing the colours that are present even in a simple rock, or particle of earth.
