My recent drawing has been focused on integrating figure and landscape motifs. The figures have arisen out of sculptures I made in 2013 based again on Henri Matisse’s work, but this time, his painting Bathers by the River. I am searching for a synthesis of these figures with drawings of tree and branch shapes commenced at Hill End earlier in 2014 that I have since developed in the studio.
