| Shadow Woods II (oil on canvas 100cm x 65cm) David Atkinson
The weather has been cold, so I have been working exclusively in the studio, developing some paintings that I started in the summer (see the August entry below). The subject, ostensibly, are the beautiful and complex shadows falling on the forest floor. I have used the sensation of those shadows as a starting point and built up layers of paint reflecting the depth and complexity of the shadows themselves. Once in the studio, I have freed myself from the 'real' colours and developed a new set of colour relationships (which is fun to do).
