Pastoral Print 120 x 70 x 4cmCreated during a period where I was an artist in residence, "Pastoral" was created as a response to the local environment. A physical reaction to the built and natural environment of a Victorian town by the Thames Estuary. Repetitive motifs of maps and organic forms are interwoven to create a pattern, softened by the pastel palette. Mixed Media on Canvas (Acrylic, acrylic ink) Framed in a wooden (oak coloured) float frame. Canvas 53cm (w) x 62cm (h)
