Test Of Time



It seems like years since I put brush to canvas, I thought it would feel alien but it didn't, it came,
flowed liked it always has.. I started this piece about this time last year before everything got all to much and I packed up my easel walking away.
I am not going to make a sudden return to painting, my studio is now gone and so has the passion.
I have given this 20 x 30 Cm painting the title ' Test of Time'
A leaf grows, taking goodness from its host and begins to changes colour until it is at its prime
around height of summer. Then returns what it has
taken, wilts, recedes with one final blush of colours waiting for a kiss of wind to set it free
from the tether it has dearly held on to all it's life and float gracefully to the earth..
Where it starts it's final chapter of life, This is where my painting starts, a autumn leaf adorned with
the sparkle of morning dew..
