ANTARCTICA 2005
‘Antarctica is a spectacular wilderness, a wilderness of landscapes reduced to a pure haiku of ice, rock, water and sky, filled with wildlife still unafraid and intrigued by the presence of humans.’ Lonely Planet
It leaves you breathless, with a sense of something greater, outwith understanding - earth as it should be. To even think of painting it seems almost irreverent, save maintaining awareness of one’s approach and of the potential beauty of a single stroke and treating the brush as if it was an element itself.
