| "These
two landscapes were conceived and worked as a complementary
pair. The idea was to represent two completely different
types of atmosphere: a lush English countryside,
and the rich, sun-drenched tones of autumnal Tuscany.
My own mind's eye view of England is pastoral and
sees a stream flowing through a meadow against a
background of trees and rolling hills. It stems
from memories of childhood and long hot summer days
in Somerset when, in my mind at least, the sun always
seemed to be shining and the sky was incredibly
blue. By contrast with the greenness of rural England
I wanted the Tuscan landscape to have more vibrant
golds and earth tones, with cypress trees, fields
of sunflowers and rows of vines." |
