These three new paintings further explore an atmospheric decorative theme and each feature one or two enigmatic figures…
It’s dawn in the avenue of pine trees. The rose-coloured mist floods across the land announcing the warm day ahead.
A solitary figure walks among the silent trees…
What are they doing there?

Two ghostly doves on a branch stand out against the night sky.
They are framed by two glowing pine trees.
Can you spot the enigmatic figure that looks up towards the birds?

Our eyes are drawn to the cherry blossoms that glow in the night, and then we notice two figures in the room filled with colour and light.
Facing each other, one is bathed in scintillating light while the second is back lit…
All three paintings share the enigmatic quality of a special moment revealed to us.
I hope you enjoy discovering these paintings.
I’d love to hear your comment.
I did enjoy discovering the three paintings John, thank you. Each one evokes a different mood and feeling. In the first you have created a scene bathed in the soft light of dawn and a wonderful misty atmosphere. The trees create such interesting and pleasing silhouetted shapes; I love these trees. The figure provides a sense of scale but also for me it generates a feeling of quiet reflection.
In the second one I am struck by the bold colour contrasts, patterns and shapes contrasting with the white/grey of the doves symbolic of peace.
Finally, I feel invited into the intimate space and interior of a private moment in The Conversation by the open shutters revealing the room bathed in light. Gorgeous colour and light and the sprinklngs of pink just make it lovely and decorative.
Hello Chris,
Thank you for your thoughts on the three paintings. Your feelings and insights, are very much in line with my own. It was also lovely to read that you picked up on the symbol of peace in the second painting, sitting on a branch in this time we’re living through.
