A Partnership With Nature
In my work the trees are symbols. They are also emissaries from nature leading me into a relationship with its forces; its unity, light and beauty. The paint represents the human part of the relationship as it tries to express what it feels and still retain its own nature as paint and human gesture. The shifting focus represents the motion and oblique glimpse we get of nature, but also provides a way to represent the unity of energy, matter and time. http://www.bonniefordwoit.com |
