Britannica. 100 x 50cm. Acrylic on canvas. Sometimes I think paint is the best way to show the things that can’t be said. #acrylicpainting #painting #guernica #fineart #artexhibition #artistsofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #pandemic #lockdown #picasso

Are you planning your fell running for 2022 yet? Maybe you need to 😉 I’ve printed more of my 36 classic Peak District fell race prints on 2 x A4 prints. Or get all 36 on a single A3 print. Lake District race A3 print also available.

My piece currently at @fronteergallery for the Contemporary Portraits exhibition. A bit of Sunday reading:

John Muir was arguably the first environmental activist and he campaigned tirelessly to preserve the wilderness of the USA. As we mourn the increasing loss of nature and have high hopes for COP26 we should remember those who came before us and helped shape the environmental awareness we all now benefit from. Sometimes we need to stand well back to get the best clarity

Description: Irre Wisce, 2021 // Plywood, metal hardware, cloth, photographs

The River Erewash (Irre Wisce in old English) forms the county border between Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire and since the industrial revolution, it has been poisoned with toxic waste, rendered devoid of life and culverted out of sight to make way for countless waves of transport infrastructure. But in stark contrast, this beautifully sinuous river has provided inspiration for world-renowned writers, poets and naturalists as it steadfastly and obliviously meanders its way south. In this piece, the artist has explored how the descriptive language humans have attached to the River Erewash has mirrored the meandering curves of the watercourse itself in how it has ebbed and flowed between romantic reverence and political rhetoric. We are asked to consider how our physical distance from natural beauty impacts our perception of it as either a precious place of solace or as an obstruction to human enterprise.

What an inspiration. Thanks @tomvanherrewege for the recommendation. Already generating new thoughts about how environmental art can be more influenced by environmentalism and ecological science. I may have my nose in this for a while #environmentalism #environmentalart #ecologicalart #fineart
