This collection of work was influenced by a painting that I did of my niece and her children as we came out of the first lockdown and her first trip out whilst she recovered from bowel cancer. The woods just danced with light and the bluebells formed a blanket that seemed wrap them up in magical colours. Her painting is not included in the gallery although on instagram and hangs beautifully on her wall . The oil is thick and impasto reflecting the nature of the woods, the thick foliage and splashes of spring sunshine trickling through.

Happy with these paintings I took pockets of each of the canvases and using abstract forms, linked each by colour and patterm to create another four canvases.
