What do we see, when we are looking?

We look at nature with a tendency to see it as a scene in front of us, as a unified whole. In that scene, we may be conscious of some daffodils, a bunch of blackberries, a bed of bluebells, a small stream behind the grasses. Yet there are less obvious things that also contribute unconsciously to what we see. Things like how the colours, textures and patterns in the environment around us are constantly in flux and flow. They move in response to wind, rain, light, heat, and in response to one another. How all those ingredients function together is what makes nature so peaceful and healing. For me as an artist, my creative practice is both inspired by and expresses my responses to the unconscious aspects of the natural world. The shifting interplays and feelings they evoke are what my work seeks to consider and convey.
