Synergy, Harmony, Unity

   All during the summer / autumn months of 2012, The art gallery in Tetbury have been running a competition for the title of artist of the year. {more Info}
   The first stage of the competition is getting as many 'LIKES' as possible on your artwork via facebook and your on line gallery, at the end of this I was standing in first position in the Best Sellers Gallery. The next stage is to submit Three lots artworks for final exhibition in the Tetbury gallery during December. The winner and two highly commended artists to be chosen by a judging panel. The judges are asked to consider the following: Saleability: Originality: Quality of presentation: Artistic skill.

  Having had a pretty awful year I was almost on the verge of pulling out of the competition because of health and financial issues, when news of a close friends death broke. I had known him and his family for over twenty years during time had become like family, pulling together through thick and thin. He was a man of the land, a legend in his own right, someone I can relate with as I too work with the land and nature, during the funeral a passage was read, which truly inspired me.

 "But someone may ask, 'How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?' How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or of something else. But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body." - 1 Corinthians 15:35-38

I returned home and began to paint these Three paintings solely to be exhibited in December at the Art Gallery, Tetbury
