ALONG THE DAISY PATH TO THE FULL MOON. March 2020. Above Bats Head, Lulworth, Dorset. Gouache and site earths on handmade cotton rag paper.

I sat up on the hillside just above the stream of visitors as the morning sun behind the arch created intense contre jour... a remarkable green/turquoise reflection shimmered in the water. Chalk fragments were scattered around me...they are often tossed out by rabbits.…
