Andrew Bryant's email to 'everyone' has prompted me to blog on…
This time of year is so difficult for me… working all year round in all weathers, now is the time when amateur landscapers come out of the woodwork.
It's 'All meant to be' I keep reminding myself. I've had time to reflect, arrange my pictures for Salzburg, design crates and find a local shipping agent who doesn't charge anything like DHhell.
'Graham's response to landscape is contemplative. Creation becomes a challenge as every mark is considered as the aesthetic process unravels towards sublime resolution. Graham's preoccupations are undoubtedly formal, but his technique relies on more than simply a conscious arrangement of shape and colour. Graham aims to intuitively distil the essence of his visual experience in a much more unlimited way. Landscape provides the ideal motif; unrestricted by figures or buildings, an exploration is permitted which ultimately pervades pure creation.' Sally-Ann Schilling.
