In The Great Dark
ORIGINAL WATERCOLOUR PAINTING ON LINEN
28cm x 22.5cm x 4.1cm
(11" x 8.8" x 1.6")
2025
Created with black sea coal gathered from the Scottish coastline, In the Great Dark explores the quiet beauty found within shadow and stillness. Gentle yet contrasting brushstrokes fall softly through the composition, echoing the movement of thought, time, and light. The work reflects how even in darkness there is depth, texture, and quiet transformation — a reminder that absence can also hold presence, and stillness can illuminate.
Collection Inspiration
Part of the Of Soil and Starlight collection, this painting embraces the profound connection between earth and cosmos. The collection reminds us that we are made of the same matter as the stars — each element, pigment, and breath an echo of the universe. These works invite reflection on our shared responsibility to nurture the fragile, interconnected world we inhabit, encouraging a sense of peace, unity, and belonging.
Painting & Delivery Details
Material: Painted using handmade watercolours derived from natural earth pigments onto linen canvas, framed in a bespoke solid oak frame finished with linseed oil.
Signature: Signed on the reverse.
Certificate: Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Your painting will be carefully packaged and shipped via courier directly from my studio, or you can collect in person from Hatfield, Hertfordshire.
