Another visit to the Lund Studio in summer where I try to absorb the mantra of the tutor. I'm not quite convinced that my final last art piece truly reflects the genus loci of Sutton Bank and the Vale of York. It seems to have turned into a seascape - perhaps that is where my heart wants to be and is my real passion.

High on Sutton Bank
Never fails to astonish me - the view across the Vale of York from Sutton Bank escarpment path on the fringes of the North York Moors- for air and a distant horizon. Walking its edge, catching the racing light driving across the horizon over its patchwork of fields. Drama in the sky - nuclear clouds, kestrels diving, gliders soaring fragile in the aggressive wind. I used my completed mixed media paintings plus videos and sound recordings taken when on the plateau.
