RETURN TO PARADISE 2 BY LISA PARKYN

An abstract ensemble inspired by countryside and coastal walks here in the South West of England. I love the fact that people have seen so many different things in these paintings – cliffs, a river, flowers, fossilised rocks and dunes – what can you see?
I enjoyed the process of adding and subtracting until a balance was found in the composition. I utilised various methods of layering and piecing together fragments through mixed media and then scraping, sanding and peeling off – metaphorically delving deeper to discover hidden gems.

Part of a set of two, sold seperately – last images show “Return to Paradise 1 & 2” in situ.
