I am constantly drawn to fragility, light and transparency and try
hard to incorporate these qualities within my practice. I am in awe of
the beautiful translucency of the turquoise sea down in Cornwall as it
rises and crashes towards the beach. I love watching the contrast of
the dark seaweed spinning in the pale blue/green waves, against a
backdrop of shimmering sunlight.
I recently acquired a clear quartz stone with inclusions that reflected the qualities I love in the Cornish sea and a sharp reminder to me of how to work.
As this was formulating in my mind I found the most amazing leaf from a delphinium that had gone transparent, so I have been playing around with this image and intend incorporating it within a print.
