Hespirides is a large painting measuring 200 x 120 x 5cm. It is painted on two panels (diptych) which hang next to each other, each panel measures 100 x 120 x 5cm. In the woods, I look out at golden light. I am hidden, cool beneath the trees, concealed in the shadows. Golden light beckons me. Out of the wild, I leave this blissful place. I was inspired to paint Hesperides whilst out walking. I wanted to capture the wild nature of the woods and set this against a permanent, straight line bathed in golden evening light, light that dazzles and dances in front of your eyes. The painting is wild and chaotic but the line is simple and static creating a strong contrast and impression. Hesperides is painted on artist quality canvas stretched over handmade wooden frames. The boxed edges are painted black. The painting has been coated with a satin varnish and is ready to hang. All paintings are shipped in custom made wooden crates to ensure their safe transportation and come with a signed certificate of authenticity.
