Apologies for the tabloid styled headline .
The aim of the day was to establish the ploughed field. Not following the delicately scored lines that exist but to create a crude ‘expressionist’ response to the landscape. I wanted the same energy and approach to finding shapes that I have used in the rest of the painting.
I quite like this cartoon like interpretation of ‘ a ploughed field’. It’s almost there in terms of a final state.
This painting appears wildly out of control and I like the appearance of this mad chaos. It does reflect how the landscape has been haphazardly carved up.
The ploughed field. Day 3
