This series of works is based on my appreciation of some of the local churches and countryside. Choosing to work within the evidently limited color scope of the medium, I used a wide range of textures and pressures to create the large number of lightnesses needed to develop a more holistic sense of ambient light and illusory space. My feeling about the result is so much in terms of color that I often refer to these works as ‘charcoal paintings’.
