Yet again it is a while since I have updated my news for secrett artwork. I have been wonderfully distracted by expanding my rural poetry and prose, and, gaining much inspiration from 'our' first grandchild! Since my last entry I received a request from a devotee to paint a secret scene from the landscape of the North Yorkshire moors where they live. You can have a glimpse of this work in the website gallery. I have so enjoyed researching and creating this piece about the atmosphere emerging from landscape, its flora and birdsong. I have had to study carefully the curlew in flight. The painting is named, 'CALLS IN THE WILD'. In the gallery it is on page 2.
At a private presentation I was pleased to see the response the piece brought from my commisioner and her somewhat surprised husband!
I have been much engaged in producing a book of twelve early poems of mine with illustrations. That is all complete and comes off the press just before Christmas...I do hope so...and that my letter-press printmaker is reading this note! My file on Autumnal verse is growing very gradually from observations of all that is going on around us visually and in secret as fauna have their latter harvests and feasts prior to hibernation, and what of COLOUR after such a proliffic summer? We at secrettarwork give thanks for the abundant harvest and praise our Maker while He lends us breath.
At this moment in time I am developing my technique in water-colour painting. As many of my friends and customers know I have never called myself a 'watercolourist' as my technique in paint application is much more impasto.
Now the Christmas card this year is called 'STILL SMALL VOICE'. So watch this space for the 2014 secrett image for the season and a new poem called, 'FESTIVE TAPESTRY'
Just to say in completing this news bite, thank you for taking the time to read this, and, from the secrettartwork team, every blessing, David and colleagues.
