Lay Down on the Earth ii | Original Oil Painting on Canvas
“Lay Down on the Earth ii” - horizontal 16" x 12" x 1.5” Original Oil Painting
My painting journey began at the age of fourteen when I found my Mother’s set of old oil paints in the attic. What I first created was truly something horrific, but I didn’t let it stop me. I kept trying. I kept failing. I kept painting. And I fell in love!
I didn’t stop painting until I became a mother myself, with my twin boys. My hands, heart, and time were too full with very active, curious boys. But there was always a need in my life to create. One I knew I would return to.
When I learned about natural earth pigments and the ability to paint in non-toxic oil without worrying about little fingerprints, and heavy, toxic odours, my process completely changed.
This collection is a celebration of the beauty found in vast, colourful skies, but also, a celebration of oils. Earth and oil. Glorious, slippery, luxurious pigments.
Original oil tinted paintings on canvas. Created layer by layer, wash after wash, to showcase the depth, beauty, and light of ever-changing, brilliant skies, and vast spaces. Where Earth meets Sky.
The titles of each painting in this collection are named after lines in this self-written poem:
The Horizon Collection
“Return to Me
To who I once used to be
Lay down on the earth
View the vast sky
A horizon set out before
A vision to fly
Endless posibilities
Potential to soar
A future so clear
Much clearer before
Warmth flowing through air
No end, only more.
Where Earth meets Sky.
