KITH

KITH, 2023, acrylic and pencil on cradled gesso board, 25.4 x 20.3 x 1.9 cm.

One of my lost in the forest series with a horned figure, or are they just wearing a hat with ears? Related to “Sometimes that holy feeling met me in the forest”. The trees are from a walk earlier this year in woodland in Murthly, near the Tay in Perthshire. There are several layers on this, it was not easy to resolve.

The edges are painted blue, and it doesn’t need a frame. If it were framed, a floating wooden tray frame with plenty of space would allow the blue edges to sing.
