Commercial Harvest Green, Oil on canvas
Commercial Harvest Orange Oil on canvas
The Isle of Bute is a place close to my home and heart, where I visit often. Whilst researching the impact of climate change on the Island this year I found scenes of devastation following the harvest of a commercial forest surrounding Blackpark, an ancient stone circle, near Kingarth, to the south of the island. These two oil paintings, Commercial Harvest, Orange and Commercial Harvest, Green, developed out of the chance encounter with a family at Blackpark stone circle.
