Inspired by the techniques of German painter Gerda Lipski, this painting began with the creation of a nest — a tangle of earthy tones, intricate marks and layered textures.
From there, three deep blue eggs emerged, speckled with brown, white and real gold leaf. Slightly raised from the canvas, they sit nestled within the intricate weave, catching the light against the dark hollow beneath.
Raw umber, muted greens and weathered hues lend the work an antique, almost medieval quality, while the brilliant blue eggs bring a striking sense of life and luminosity. The nest motif extends around the canvas edges in a muted tapestry of interwoven lines and earthy tones, echoing the tangled grasses and twigs of the nest itself..
A study in texture, colour and contrast, Within the Nest evokes shelter, protection and the quiet promise of new beginnings.
The hexagonal canvas offers versatility in display, allowing the work to be hung at different angles to suit your space.
